The general rule, although it sometimes varies with the particular antennas used, is the higher frequency antenna determines the minimum spacing. This is because in almost all cases the higher frequ

The two major problems with comparing two or three complex stations on one weekend, or even several weekends, is that none of us really know how those stations actually work. We might know how model

Why doesn't the official list follow the age old standard CW method that we all learned for years and years of dropping vowels when possible??

I think it might be tough to keep any net busy. The idea of topics that might have a broad interest is a good one, and might accomplish that. I'm delighted Tommy got his RFI fixed, although I missed

Your antenna does not sound too bad. You should be within a dB or two of a full size antenna, unless you have the antenna jammed up in the middle of a bunch of other stuff that is sucking up the sign
