I have no problem with what PG was doing to boost activity! I noted that 40m was not nearly as productive at the start as it had been in previous years. Starting on 40m was a 'trademark' of his get o
I would like to know how he does that for a Kenwood TS-850? There is no control of the B VFO mode via RS-232. Frequency is okay though. Otherwise I would consider an option to have band map data writ
Ohhh...duh! Its not very elegant, but FR1;FT1;MD3;FR0;FT0; should work then to put B in CW mode while having A active. That was the "something" I was really missing. Awesome. Glad to be proven wrong!
Folks, I think this is a pretty intriguing idea. It sounds right for the time. The details could surely use some polishing, but I would operate this one. -- 73 es God Bless de KK1L...ron (kk1l@arrl.n
You answered your own question! It is not the sprint, and it is not life or death traffic. You did your duty restating your callsign correctly. Move on it's big0gun's problem. Likely it is correct i
This was something I did not know! Way cool. Discovered that you can add 'Z' (include the quotes) to the end of the time style and you can get the Z at the end too! -- 73 es God Bless de KK1L...ron (
Folks, The newbie freebie station idea sounds fine. We work with a similar attitude at W1MOO. However I find it nearly impossible to teach someone to run or work S&P properly WHILE trying to operate.

Me too. Yeah but the status of a particular fisherman does not reduce his visibilty to the "big gun". I worked a few 1 and 10 watt stations over the weekend, rest assured that they were not very "vi
Folks, Looks like I will be in Austin, TX for a few days. I've got tomorrow afternoon and evening open at this point. Any good ham things of interest in the area? -- 73 de KK1L...ron (kk1l@arrl.net)
I have never operated SO2R and feel it should NOT be in a different category. I will try it sooner or later though. I distinctly reside in the camp that SO2R is a lone operator striving to maximize
Yikes...seems to me we have a winner of the Poisson d'Avril contest with the gambling post! The timing was just too coincidental to be real. Next thing you know we'll be talking about the Technology
Then I suggest you would not like HF contesting :) I have done VERY little VHF contesting for the reason you like it. -- 73 de KK1L...ron (kk1l@arrl.net) <>< QTH: St. Albans, Vermont My page: http:/
... Doug, I remember reading somewhere on the internet about a guy who would download AP newswire reports or something similar. He would feed these through a code generator and catch up on the news v
Speaking of uniques... I was in the back of an open pickup truck with a few other St. Albans Amateur Radio Club members and our kids slowly rolling down the road a few weekends ago. We had my TS-850
Folks, Our field day group has been talking about networking our logging computers. Rather than build special cables I thought of the following two ideas. The nice thing about these ideas is that any
Mel, Don't worry about the call being long. It is not an issue of short or long really. The big thing is timing. My first antenna was my dog's run! Pretty crappy, but it started to teach me technique

Folks, Please tell me if my signal stinks! I want to be as loud as I can be with a good clean signal and clear punchy audio. During SS Phone someone clued me in about my audio not being clean. The co
