Hi Geoffrey, I'm glad you recognize that you are a special case. You are really missing out. One of the great joys of CW, for me and I'm sure others too, is to be in a QSO when that band is open and

Be careful! There are many products out there with model numbers which suggest certain power ratings, but the real ratings are much lower than the "model number implied power rating". A good example

I have heard of useing two pieces of coax to make balanced feeders in this manner before. I am sure that it can work, however I wonder what you lose when you do this. It seems to me that you would n

"N" connectors, when properly installed have much less loss than so called "UHF" (PL259/SO239) type connectors. At HF the loss may not be much for a brand new, shiny PL259, and the extra care and exp

Hi all, I am having some difficulties with my Omni VI. The first noticed problem is low TX power, particularly on 160 meters. The power is near enough to 100 watts on 80, 40, 30, 20 meter bands that

Hi all, My Omni VI is not producing full power on all bands. I have not fixed it yet, though I am probably closer to understanding the problem than I was when I last posted to the reflector about it.
