221. Topband: K8R on 160 using SuperFox (score: 1)
Author: "GEORGE WALLNER" <aa7jv@atlanticbb.net>
Date: Fri, 19 Jul 2024 21:54:58 -0400
Hello TopBanders, As you may know, K8R is a test run for N5J, Jarvis. The season is not ideal for 160. However, we have been testing FT8 SuperFox on the higher bands and the performance with the late

It make it easier if you think of the loading coil as a transformer: the current is lower on the "top" but the voltage is higher. Power is the same (minus losses). 73, George, AA7JV On 7/28/2024 2:03

Hello Top-Banders, The N5J DXpedition is planning to go QRV on Aug 7 (maybe 8th on 160 if there are WX issues). While Aug is not the best time to work KH5 on TB, this is the only time we got. To make

Generally, we go to 160 around 0500 until we run out of callers. We are trying for EU at that time, but NA is much appreciated too. Then we QSY to 80 and come back to 160 around 0830 Z. Stay on 160 a

We will get around to FT8 on 160 soon. TKS for the Q-s. George George, Tnx for the 160m QSO. Do not need Jarvis on other bands with N6VR. I do need Jarvis Is. on 160m and other bands, with W7YA on FT

Jim, We are using all of the cores you have given me. They help, but it is hard to get a good ground at the top-end of the beach where the sand is very dry and rocks prevent rods getting driven deep

Mike, We have done all those things to the generators and more. Even shielded the ignition coils. Some of the noise is impulse noise that comes from the low voltage input to the ignition coil. We can

Steve, 40 m has been a problem at N5J. Often we have S9+20 dB over-the-horizon radar signal blanketing from 6.95 to 7.050 for hours at a time. We are considering operating at 7050, but that is very c

N5J was on 160 from 0450 to 0530 last night with reduced power. We reduced power due to issues with the 160 m antenna, which we have shortened to reduce danger to birds. Birds have entered a very act
