We shouldn't blame the guys who were using the Window in daylight -- the rules specifically allow that: "Please observe the DX window from 1830 to 1835 kHz during the hours of darkness. The DX window

Just some comments regarding advice posted in the ARRL Contest Rate Sheet on radial installation: This technique works well if the ground is fairly level and even. Unfortunately, on uneven and sloped

Bob, Unless you consider the pre-amp "rare" or "collectible", just swap out the RCA connectors with BNCs. Those are more of a standard now than RCA connectors. Adapters are easy enough to use, but wh

I see a number of commercial and military aviation antenna tuners have resistors (50K+) to ground as a static drain. I find these easy to build from older non-inductive carbon resistors that have exc

Try down around 1810, that's where the QRP folks hang out and generally they send a bit slower or ask folks to QRS. I'm always glad to slow down and usually do so if it sounds like I should ;o) State

Steve, Some will make the QSO and some will be very put off by it, depends on conditions. Probably your best shot at finding what you need will be during ARRL 160 and Stew Perry, possibly CQ160. I've

Just curious if anyone has tried to do this... I'm probably less concerned about f/b than I am gain. The workable choices I have include: 1/8 wave phasing of two marconis or a dipole and a marconi or

I'm working on feeding two short top-loaded verticals that are mechanically within and 1/8 wave of each other. Hopefully, I can get some switchable directivity... But, I'd be tickled with an efficien

Misposted this... The taller the vertical section, the less top loading required. Therefore the top portion does tend to be shorter. If you make the top longer, it may be easier to tune the antenna f

A trick that I have used that is not pretty, but works, is aluminum foil. You can cover a very good area of ground effectively and cheaply with a few rolls. Obviously, this is only temporary and YMMV
