As men, there are a few unwritten laws: Don't denigrate another man's woman. Don't denigrate another man's ride. If a ham, don't denigrate choice of: a) radio b) antenna c) chosen mode(s) of operatio

The same can be said about many things in life. I'm reminded of my days as a golfer, back in high school and college. We'd see a guy on the course with brand new clubs, bag and clothing. He'd be luck

If money is no problem, buy both, considering your plan to be a big-gun contester. I have the 600-Hz and 300-Hz filters in my Eagle. In my Omni-VI Plus I had 500-Hz and 250-Hz filters in each of the

Hello All. At one time there was a discussion on here about where to find the RC4136N quad op amp. The Corsair II happens to use this part in the audio section. It has a different pin out than any ot

A lot has to do with how you come to know Field Day over the years. Except for the year that I ran the 40 phone station, the club that I belonged to as a new ham had so many participants that each wa

Well, Bob, as someone else mentioned, the original intent of Field Day was more like SET. But, how many hams turn out for SET these days (the question is rhetorical; I have no idea) versus Field Day?

Steve, you encountered my kind of Field Day. It's definitely not for everyone. First of all, congratulations on being a 100% CW op, especially as a newer ham where CW is not a requirement for the lic

One more thing, Steve. The OTs should have been grateful to have some new blood in their midst. When I was active with the local club, some of us OTs would sit around and bemoan the fact that we coul

Hmm...is this the sort of Field Day that I can look forward to if we move to Volcano in a few years? Maybe I should operate solo from the upper regions of the island. How is it that you're not reachi

The topic is fine, Rick. I'm quite liberal with discussion here as long as it relates to Ten-Tec and does not refer to auctions or auction sites. My story: While I have been licensed since 1965, when

Kim, I guess now I belong in that same fraternity. I was excited when I had been a ham for 25 years and could join the QCWA. However, I was all of 42 years old. I looked at their periodic publication

Actually, I find the feel of the Begali, Mercury and my new K8RA P-4 paddle much better than the Kent. But I'm not giving up. Besides, it was a surprise gift from the XYL at Pacificon some years ago.
