Polarization on 160m Interesting discussion and one I suspect we wish could fully comprehend ! When the wave front meets the ionosphere and the wave splits the critical frequency is different for the

Not knowing about "gyros", but when operating and having vertical and horizontal antennas available, I remember times when QSB was happening on one antenna, switching to the "other" polarization ante

WIll add my two cents to this discussion. One thing I have experience with is diversity reception both on 160 and 80 meters. Often - I would be using my TX antenna in one ear and a beverage in anothe

 Speaking of "two ears" Going back to using two Drake R4B receivers, two antennas, one on each ear, there would be times when "two ears" heard the signal, while switching to each other there would be

There is simply no substitute for diversity reception. It has proven its worth to virtually all who have ever used it. 73 to all. . . Dave, W0FLS Speaking of "two ears" Going back to using two Drake

Agreed... Diversity RX is a game changer. If you have never used it you dont know what you are missing. Beverages and 9 circle rx array used here in diversity and for the weak ones on 160 it makes th

On 80 I listen on the K3 with the Waller Flag at 95 feet es the Hi-Z 8 in Diversity Receive and transmit on the M2 rotary 106 feet.. I kill them on this band. 160 is harder on RX as I use the K3 as a

Herb, Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought I read the rules for the ARRL 160 and saw where US possessions can work US VE and DX? 73, Mark K0KX So is the 70-year-old Collins 74A4 with its mechanic fi

That's correct but under these rules, the VI is not DX and counts the same as a W/VE two-pointer. Navassa which is certainly rare, especially on 160, is counted as KP2. Desecheo KP5 is counted the sa

Herb, Of course the VI should be counted as DX. You are 1000 miles further from the ConUS than me, and I count as DX (C6AGU), being only 200 miles from FL. It is not logical that you should compete o
