Same here. I was QRV for the "rump" session Saturday morning in the Stew. In the half hour or so between 1500 and the ionization of the D layer by the rising sun, I logged a few dozen western station

The season has yet to reach the bottom of this canyon. However, I am hearing a strange repetitive signal on 1828.15. It is an on-off carroer sequence--hour seconds on, two seconds off, not unlike a t

Bob: Excuse me, but IMHO your Point 1 should be modified as follows: 1. being QRV from a QTH from which there is propagation to the DX. Garry

Based upon an exchange with Ray, G3NOM, I do not think they plan a serious 160 effort. 100 W and whatever they can figure out to put up on the roof of a downtown hotel, in April, in the tropics is no

Author: garry@ni6t.com (Garry Shapiro)

Yes, there are. The problem is that there are so many styles and models of dimmers--rotary knobs with switches at the CCW end or with push-in switches, sliders with or without switches, and toggles.

All currently manufactured dimmers should have filters in them. I also found Dan: Yes, they should all have filters, but the bargain units usually do not. Your observation about no noise if OFF or FU

IMHO, one must be very careful when any sort of network is introduced between the antenna being measured and the MFH unit, to prevent seriously altering the reading. A two-terminal or one-port devic

This is also anecdotal, but FWIW: I live in dense canyon of second-growth redwoood, a tree that stores a huge amount of water. Most of the trees are 130 to 160 feet tall (100 years old). My usual 160

Is there a DX window in the Stew? I don't recall that oddity in this contest, it's not in the rules, and I saw nothing mentioned the past few days on this Reflector. But two or three guys jumped on m

Are you worried about ground simulation or real operation over real ground? I run mine over steep and highly variable terrain, and my Beverages are neither perfectly straight nor at constant height.

The capacitors may be on the edge of failure. Several years ago, I was fortunate to get to know a local lineman who had been assigned to RFI/TVI mitigation--a job no one else in the yard wanted. We d

Eric: That is OK as general advice for general topband DXing. But I am not sure it applies in the case of a difficult location. For example, I doubt if time of year or time of cycle matters much on t
