W2GD's so eloquently expressed his feelings.... and I am 100% in agreement
with him on this issue.
Ever since John AA1K gave a program at an FRC meeting in the early 80's I have
been tweeking my
battle with SN/ratio's and man made nose. hours and hours, beverages, bogs
K9AY and 4 sq receiving
array .... and every wire every ground rod , was located @ " MY QTH " no
my mountain HOME
This remote receiving is akin to the days we had a 2mter spotting NET.....
both simples and full duplex.
some one would call out a station i.e. BY9QH 3539 and for the un
believer's after a " few I can't hear him "
The call out station would open hi FM mic to his R4C receiver and most of
use would be more determined to
RE Read ON4UN's low band DX'ing to see what we might be able to do.
I was there when W2GD worked a VU on the top band ... with this CRAZY notion
promoting remote receive sites.
I should have keep calling and listing to keep his 2mtr mic open and pray....
