Hi everyone, I am new to this listing. I was referred here by the ARRL contest crew. I am going to be operating in EN29 from Lake of the Woods, Ontario, Canada. I will be on 6m, 2m, and 70cm SSB - ri
Hi everyone, I will be headed to EN29 the first weekend in August. Ill be headed to Nebraska for the weekend and then up to EN29 the following Monday. Should be on the air Monday night on 6 meters wi
John, I MAY possibly be in Omaha, NE, during part of the contest. I will only have 432, however. I would be willing to try to give you a contact as well as anyone else in the area. I will know if Ill
I am going to be bringing back an old C-band TVRO dish on my trip back home from EN29, I am wanting to use it for 1420MHz radio astronomy, but I would also REALLY like to use it for transmitting and
Hi everyone, my August trip got delayed because I had to wait for a friend to have a day off work to I could visit with him on my way to EN29. He has this Friday off, so Ill leave from his house Satu
Hi, I am wondering what the stacking distance should be for a 5 element 50mHz beam, 13 element 144mHz beam, a 21 element 432mHz beam, and a 144/440 dual band beam (5 elements each band). I want to st
OK, now I am getting confused. I am hearing a LOT of different things here. Some of you say to stack the 144 beam above the 50 beam at the stacking distance for 144... That doesnt make sense because
Well I got my antennas up today. I stacked them all at 1/2wl except for the 144/440 FM beam. I stuck that in between the 50MHz beam and the 144MHz beam since that was the largest gap and the vertical
Hello, I am once again headed to my family's place on Lake of the Woods in Ontario Canada - EN39. I will be going some time towards the end of June or in July. At this point I dont know any more deta
Hello, I have been away from the meteor scatter scene for almost a year. I remember getting online on a site called "Ping Jockey" where I set up my contacts. There was also another one that I used bu
Nope, thats not it. I checked it out but I have been on that one before, just not the one I was trying to find. If I remember correctly they separated the site into 3 categories - FSK441, JT65, and a
Hi all, my friend Jim KC8JPZ and I are trying to figure out how to elevate some VHF/UHF antennas, but we hit a snag. The original idea to elevate the antennas was to use a lead screw type drive (like
Hi all, I have a question regarding installing cable for VHF/UHF. What I want to do is wire up my cabin in EN39 for coax and rotor control. How I want to do it is run cables from the inside wall of t
Thanks for all the replies I got on the cable installation. I think what I am going to do is try to track down some thicker cable for the run through the cabin. There are a few ways I can route it, n
Hi all, I want to give everyone an update as to what is happening with my trip. The possibility has come up that I might be staying there an extra week. We are planning to leave on the 13th of july a
Hi all, I downloaded the latest version of WSJT - the icon on my computer says WSJT6 (it has the specJT scope too). I cant get it to go into the transmit sequence or recieve. The screen comes up and
Well I got to test the antenna setup for my EN39 trip this past weekend at field day. We had a snag from the beginning - my buddy's welder ran out of gas half way through him building a star mount fo
I am wondering if there is a net, other than the EME net on 20m, for VHF activity. I would like to have some sort of known frequency on HF for my EN39 trip other than giving out a range of frequencie
Hmm. Well what does everyone think I should do for an HF frequency? I can run all bands - including 60m. Im not sure if 60m would be appropriate, though. It is a new band and not everyone is going to
I figured I would ask the group here if anyone knows of a couple top sections for Rohn 25 for sale close to Columubs, OH. A buddy of mine is looking for them to use in his EME array - cross boom/elev
