I have been busy getting the radials down for my new array and found that you can actually buy lawn (or garden) staples from Amazon!! Just go to Amazon and enter "garden staples" and look at the resu

This AM, it appears VK3ZL went to bed early as he wasn't on the band when I got up. However, after a few CQs, I heard VK6ABL coming back to me - around 1245 UTC. However, Phil faded after I sent him

Well - my 2nd parasitic element is online. And now - I have to figure out how to tune this sucker. :-) One tool that I think would be useful is a wideband noise generator of some kind. Occasionally,

It happened a few days later than last year, but G4AMT once again was the first European to make it into the N6TR/7 log this "season". He was followed quickly by GM0GAV. QSOs took place in the 0350z

Wow - wow - wow. Last night - the band sure sounded boring. No DX signals were coming in. I have been listening for RA4LW nightly - as this is the time of year he is often heard just after sunset - b
