Equipment- TS950 SD and 950 SDX, Alpha 87a and AL-1200.
Antennas- 155 CAs at 80 and 40 feet, PRO-67A at 120 and TH7 at 40.
I wasn't sure how using 2 radios on the same band would work out, but I
was pleasantly surprized during the SSB portion to find there was less
interaction than I had imagined. Placed the ICE receiver protectors on
both radios just to make sure, however! Was a bit concerned for the CW
weekend as the frequency range is much less than on 15m SSB, but found
that, as long as the antennas weren't pointing right at one another I
could get within 10 khz of my CQ frequency with the S and P radio.
Certainly cuts down on the idle moments in a contest!. Conditions in
Tennessee were quite good, although I could not get decent runs going
into JA. I must need bigger, higher antennas. Now I just need to
convince my wife! Best to all. Steve, NN4T.
