Bob, I remember the good ole days when you had to find and zero beat, make contact without tailending (it was illegal-but ARRL didn't enforce it) and then copy and write down (legibly) call signs and
Mark, Will it happen? The first Louisville Ham Kenvention was held in Louisville KY at the Fairgrounds (KFEC) with yours truly as chairman in 1966. It featured an all indoor flea market, forums, and
Dave, I am very aware of your amp loading problem. But equal SWR does not mean equal load impedance. I put an XMatch antenna tuner on each antenna and then the problem is solved for a wide frequency
