XJ6ITT

[Gerry.Hohn.CSGXH01 at nt.com]

A number of people have asked???

NO we where not in Mexico!!

Got that question qwuite a bit during the contest.

XJ is one of the multitude of PXs available for special
occations in Canada.

We where located at Morinville, Alberta, a few miles North
of Edmonton.

Antennas are a 19 elm. 3-30 MHz rotatable at 100' plus
2 fixed logs 3-30 MHz to the NE and NW and a 20 M mono.

Rigs where IC761/TS440/TS850 and 3-1000 and SB220 linears.

We work only the CQWW and WPX both SSB from this site.

See you in the WW-SSB

Several of you have asked how to adjust the power output of the TS-850S.

This is done by adjusting VR7 on the RF board.  Its not recommended to go 
over
130 Watts, and remember your power supply must be capable of the increased
current requirement.

Hello, all. I'll be in Kingston for the CQ WPX CW Contest (Last weekend
in May), plus a couple days before. Single op, low-power, all-band
entry.
	I've applied for 6Y0DX during the contest period.
	This is my first venture outside the country for ham radio. It's
not Bouvet, but I'm pumped about it. Hope to work you in may from
Kingston.
Thanks to 6Y5IC and 6Y5AB for their massive amount of help.

Hmmmm, I wouldn't do this without using a spectrum analyzer
to investigate what this does to harmonic output. Has this already
been done? There is a reason, you know, why they adjust the output to
100W at the factory...

I am looking for reliable, waterproof connectors for 1 1/4" and 1 5/8"
Andrew Heliax (LDF6-50 and LDF7-50A)...I understand there is a source of
newly-made custom-machined connectors (via N2NT/KZ2S?)...I would also be
interested in surplus connectors if anyone has a line on some...I don't
want to use soldered plumbing parts for reliability and waterproofing
reasons...can also use splice-connectors instead of N or UHF, as most of
the runs I have require two or three lengths to reach my towers.  Any help
most appreciated...73 de Dave, W6QHS         dleeson at mcimail.com
