Are there any announced plans for A NAQP SSB practice session tonight? I finally took the time to figure out how to SO2R with WAV files and N1MM and would like to test things before the real deal. 73
The Colorado QSO party is tomorrow from 6AM MDT to 10PM MDT. See full rules at: http://ppraa.org/coqp Quite a number of mobile ops will be out in force to supply you with needed counties. Please drop
Does anyone know the maker and model number of the six conductor outdoor connectors which are used on the newer ring rotor motors (TIC rings)? Mine is black vinyl/plastic, about 3/4 by 1/2 inch recta
Over the years, I've managed to clean up most of the cross band interference that occurs when I operate my SO2R station running high power. The one exception is that I cannot use my 10M monobander to
Wow, Thanks for all the quick responses. Here is a summary of what I've heard so far. 1) I am already using coax stubs on both the 10M and 15M feedlines, and I believe these are working. I do not hav
I want to thank all of you for your great insight on my problem with the 10M monobander transmit power getting into the 15M monobander line. It turns out that adding a simple reject stub for 10 and 2

Fritz, I had two FT1000D's connected to N1MM for many years, using the FIF232C interface units. You'll need to buy a USB to serial adapter if your computer doesn't have a true serial port. I had two
The drive motor for one of my TIC rings (1022D) recently bit the dust. The motor still turns, but the internal gear drive is stripped. Was just told that it cannot be repaired, and my only option is
Thanks for your input on this. Carl at Tic Ring told me that it was a typo in his initial message. He offered a "complete replacement" for $4245, which I interpreted to mean a complete new ring rotor
Jeff, regarding stubs on six-pack, I place mine on the six individual band ports. A few are "Tee-d" in right at the SO239 on the six pack, but most are connected with a "T" a short distance away. I n
A modification I use with the CM500 headphones is to make two loops of rg8x that are slightly shorter in length than the circumference of the plastic ear frames. I tape the ends together with electri
Anyone a MK2R+/N1MM windows 10 guru? I have struggled to get set for NAQP tomorrow. Still have a stumbling block. I have finally gotten all audio balanced as per the MK2R+ instructions. My transmit a
On a different thread for the subject, I'm wondering if there is the possibility of setting up a "NO QSL" list, similar to the no-call list for phones (although the no-call list doesn't seem to work
Mike, I used a Top 10 DX Doubler up until November 2015. It worked great, but I got the the point where all my computers lacked an LPT port. Decided to sell it and replaced it with an MK2R. You shoul
For yesterday's sprint, I tried using QSOrder to record the contest. I am running SO2R using N1MM and a MicroHam MK2R+ controller. I was able to record continuous audio and also create the individual
Kudos to K3IT, LA8OM, and K0AV. The secret was to use an additional switch "--so2r" in the QSOrder startup, and also change the windows setting for the recording CODEC from 1-channel to 2-channel. Pr
Scott, I just sent you a bunch of screen shots showing my setup parameters. I tried recording last Thursday's NCCC sprint, but only captured one radio. I didn't realize that the WYH (what you hear) s
If you look at the website, it specifically says (Where:) non-WARC HF bands. If you download the spreadsheet, it only has columns for non-WARC HF bands. Can't be much clearer than that. Nothing to se
I recently acquired a second KLM 15 meter monobander that I want to stack with one I already have in the air. I started to assemble it today and found that the boom was four feet short! Should be 36
