1. [SECC] SS Phone Thoughts (score: 1): Author: aa4lr@arrl.net (Bill Coleman); Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2001 10:38:39 -0500; I know many of you have moved on to CQWW CW, but I'm still digesting what happened during SS Phone. Here's some of my thoughts. Good: * Having a beam makes all the difference. I could get through to; /archives//html/SECC/2001-11/msg00266.html (10,565 bytes)
2. [SECC] SS Phone Thoughts (score: 1): Author: mcondon@attglobal.net (Michael Condon); Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2001 16:20:18 -0500; Bill, Some thoughts. There are a lot of strata in the RF soup. The power levels, QRP, LP, and HP set the basic level. Antennae, Wires, Small Beams, Multiple Beams, are another set of factors. Operati; /archives//html/SECC/2001-11/msg00267.html (13,060 bytes)

[SECC] SS Phone Thoughts (score: 1): Author: aa4ga@contesting.com (Lee Hiers); Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2001 13:02:58 -0500; I don't know how high your A3 is, but I've heard those add-on kits are pretty lossy...a better bet may be to put the 40m dipole at 35' horizontal...I think that would be a good SS antenna. 80m with l; /archives//html/SECC/2001-11/msg00268.html (8,384 bytes)
4. [SECC] SS Phone Thoughts (score: 1): Author: aa4lr@arrl.net (Bill Coleman); Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2001 13:12:03 -0500; A3S is at 49.5' (15m). Problem with going to 35' feet horizontal is coming up with a support to run it to! I got no trees other than the ones backing up to my yard, and those trees house my 105' doub; /archives//html/SECC/2001-11/msg00269.html (8,557 bytes)
5. [SECC] SS Phone Thoughts (score: 1): Author: w4an@contesting.com (Bill Fisher W4AN); Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2001 13:19:24 -0500 (EST); Bzzzttt. Requires a good ground. Try the 1/2 sloper. The tower will act as the "good ground" and be more efficient and less messy. I used this antenna at my QTH in Lilburn and it worked VERY well.

6. [SECC] SS Phone Thoughts (score: 1): Author: aa4ga@contesting.com (Lee Hiers); Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2001 13:31:46 -0500; I assumed that supports were the problem...so, if the 35' high 80m antenna doesn't do the job and you're going with another 80m antenna, use the supports for a 40m antenna instead. As W4AN mentioned,; /archives//html/SECC/2001-11/msg00271.html (8,610 bytes)
7. [SECC] SS Phone Thoughts (score: 1): Author: jpryor@arches.uga.edu (Jay Pryor); Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2001 13:36:36 -0500; Lee is right. I have the 40M add-on, on an A3 and never use it because the 1/2 WL dipole outperforms it by far. FYI.

[SECC] SS Phone Thoughts (score: 1): Author: mcondon@attglobal.net (Michael Condon); Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2001 18:39:54 -0500; Lee, Bill, If I were to put up a wire for 40M only, it would probably be a folded dipole. No loss, possible tweak of gain, but better bandwidth. I have one in a bucket for field days before the A3/40; /archives//html/SECC/2001-11/msg00273.html (9,844 bytes)

[SECC] SS Phone Thoughts (score: 1): Author: wa4tt@nlamerica.com (John Vickers); Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2001 16:05:12 -0500; Bill -- I heard you on 80m S&Ping and Your sig was a LOT weaker than other Ga. stations on the band (at the same time).

It performed excellently in the SS and CQWW. The primary incredients are 2 coils from a 402-cd, which are available as repl; /archives//html/SECC/2001-11/msg00275.html (8,016 bytes)
11. [SECC] SS Phone Thoughts (score: 1): Author: gabnjb@earthlink.net (Gary Breed); Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2001 17:30:05 -0500; John has a good point. I used an 80M dipole for Field Day up in Wisconsin -- max height about 30 ft., with the ends about 10 ft. up. It generated plenty of action with QRP.
