I've hesitated to chime in here because I thought the problem was being discussed very well and perhaps I don't have anything to add. But I do. Kwajalein, Marshall Islands. The pileups were big and w

From December 1983 to April 1989 I operated 160 through 6 meters from Kwajalein, Marshall Islands. The pileups were big and were there every time I pressed a key or opened a mic. I made 83,000 QSOs,

Propagation is king, but hams can do things to improve contact probability and lessen the effects of fading. When I was in the Army we employed diversity reception and transmission to combat this. Th

This is exactly what the models predict. It turns out that if you model two paths, separated by 2 milliseconds, with random phase, you get Rayleigh fading with 10-20 dB fades. I forget what speed th

I should add that when diversity reception is used with wireless microphones for broadcasting, entertainment, and worship, the outputs of the two receivers are "voted" for best signal to noise ratio,

Just knowing that you are wasting 21% of your output power in an unnecessary 1 dB of feed line loss will play with your head and cause you to perform sub-optimally. Dave Hachadorian, K6LL Yuma, AZ On
