Comments:
Hust a few minutes handing out a few QSO's to my NS buddies in Texas. In
between chores this weeekend, I tried out the Wrist Rocket and raised all the
wire antennas up another 10-30 feet in preparation for the Fall contest
season:
- 40-Meter dipole now at at 60 feet
- 80-meter dipole now at 50 feet
- 160-meter Inverted L at 70 feet
Also knocked off several 'to-do' items ahead of Sweepstakes:
- bought a MFJ-424B Digital Voice Keyer as a backup to soundcard DVK
- fixed my PIEXX SO2Rxlat card (after 4 weeks of troubleshooting, Duh!)
- bought a 2,500 Watt slug and two SO-239 connectors for my Bird-43 wattmeter
- fixed the mic keying problem with my Yamaha CM500 headset
- moved the FIOS wireless modem closer to the shack
- installed a landline phone jack in the shack
Next item: fix the Alpha 78, then it will be time for SS!
