Hello All, I'm new on the list. I'm sarting to prepare antennas for the Fall and am contemplating adding a Rx antenna or two. I have enough room to lay out a short beverage(s) of about 300'. I know i

Sorry I didn't respond on reflector, but thanks to everyone for the input on my Rx antenna(s) decision. It was very useful to hear what works for folks. Cheers, Julius n2wn __________________________

Hi Adrian, Unless you're blessed with soft loamy soil that cuts easy, I would hazard to guess that any way you go will be hard work. If you have nice soft loam you can use a "sled" like in ON4UN's bo

Hello Folks, I'm getting close to reworking my Top Band Vertical in the next few weeks. I'd like to make it a bit better than it was last year. The current antenna is tapered from 2.5" to 0.5", about

I have stacked these as tall as 44' (ten sections) with help. They were guyed at the top and about mid way. I used them to support a 40M half Square. They stayed put until a tree came down on the hal

Steve, All the states were represented in ARRL160 last year, and were workable in Tn without a Rx antenna (managed them all with a 72' vertical, base loaded and 100 watts, wish DXCC were as easy!) fr

I think timing is everything to work WAS and DXCC. Certainly you dramatically increase your odds by playing in the three major 160 contests. Conditions in my limited experience seem better to do so d

Just my two cents worth on the topic, on LOTW for the last two ARRL 160 contests the following states have not posted logs: 2005: KH6, NV, ND, OK and WY in 2006: AZ, DE, KH6, NV, ND, RI, UT, WV, WY.

I'm opinionated when it comes to my K2's... but I can be objective as well ;o) I'm sure there are better numbers, mostly after add ons, for the Yaesu and Ten Tec high end rigs that are worth having i

Whilst playing in the RDXC this past weekend, was hoping for some Pacific action but ran across KL7RA, who had one heck of a nice signal into Eastern Tn around 1030Z. He was strong for quite a while,

I don't think "everyone" is rolling up their antennas and heading into hibernation until the fall. A lot of us have to remove some antennas for planting/mowing/to keep the peace with the spouse or ne

Bill, I agree with Bob... Depends on what you have for supports, proximity to power lines, how tall you can make a self supporting or guyed vertical, if you're going for DX or will be content with st

I'm sure I'm not the only one, but I swear by my Elecraft K2. Great performance, easy to fix (if needed), great support... Will advise on the K3 as soon as mine arrives, hopefully will be on the air

Another, often cheap or free, are weights used for weight lifting. They can be found at yard sales, flea markets and stores like Goodwill or Salvation Army. The plastic ones work well and seem to hol

Has anyone built a Rx only version of the famous W3NQN bandpass filters? I'm curious what cores/wire were used... Looking at getting the size smaller than the 150W version. 73, Julius n2wn counting t

For what it's worth, I started out with a 55' base loaded vertical and it worked OK. It was not the best for DX with 100W, but did manage to work the folks with good ears. I went to a 78' vertical al
