Jerry:
I'm down the hill from a Big Gun (Top of Honor Roll ever since I've
known him - 20+ years.) When he's on the same band as I, my receiver knows
it. He usually runs close to 50 dB over S9. He says I'm just as strong in
his ears, too. You might also check with clubs that operate portable during
Field Day. They are likely to have stations operating simultaneously in CW
and SSB on the same band. What do they do?
BOTTOM LINE: If you're both after the same DXpedition, you'll hear each
other but good unless you coordinate your operations, e.g., via 2M.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Neighbors
Last year I elmered my next door neighbor and he's a quick learner!!....now
he's putting up a tower and an HF yagi... so am I....so of course we're
helping each other with digging holes and pouring concrete, etc. But now
we're wondering what sort of problems (like front end overload, etc) are
experienced by two neighbors operating same time, same band, maybe 500 feet
apart. There has to be a few of you out there that have had a sililar
situation... are there any tips or suggestions or warnings you might give?

PS... if towertalk is not the right forum for this question, please
forgive... where should I take it?
