I was running about 20 watts input to an 807. As I recall, the antenna was an end-fed wire about 100 feet long and about 20 feet above the ground. Of course, it's not so hard to work EU from NB and 1

Further to the comments by W1FJ and K8GG, I own a very old General Radio RF Bridge, Model 916A. It is probably at least 50 years old but still works very well. I use it regularly for checking the hea

I find the posting by Denny, K8DO, unduly pessimistic. While he may be right that a vertical is the best antenna for working DX on 160, it shouldn't be concluded that other antennas won't work for DX

Further to the message from G3REP, the following DX stations were heard on top band last evening here in Ottawa: OY9JD, EA8ZS, PA0CLN, G4VGO, CX1SI and PV1BVY, to say nothing of that rare one K1ZM/VY

Regarding DXAID: Peter Oldfield has a new e-mail address: poldfield@proxymedia.com I, too, find DXAID a very useful tool. One has to remember, though, that its auroral maps are derived from mathemati

I wish to register my disagreement with the opinion of N0OQW for the following reasons: 1. Yes, as was said, code practice is a very valuable service. The more we can do to help more would-be radio a

Propagation on topband to Europe from Ottawa has been very poor this season and I wonder whether others in northern latitudes have had a similar experience. Here are some figures comparing my DX resu

Very sorry to hear that Peter is a silent key. My first QSO with Peter was in October 1978 (I was VE1AXT in those days). His QSL for that QSO notes that he was running 10 watts to an inverted vee. Th

I was listening to Bill and others working the Europeans last night. However, up here in Ottawa there was nothing to be heard at all on either my beverage or inverted L. The aurora map showed an inte

I too listened this morning (Oct 6, UTC) in awe as the west coast and European stations had a party ! The Europeans were very weak here, the best signals being from DF2PY, G4DBN, SM4CAN and LA9GX. Bu

I see quite a few references on the reflector to the "Stu Perry" Contest. I think that it's important to get the name right. W1BB's name was Stew, not Stu. I have his QSL and copies of his Newsletter

For those of you waiting for a UA0KAG QSL, I can report that Christmas came early for me. A QSL for my September 8 160M cw qso with UA0KAG arrived by airmail today. Three months turn-around is not ba
