I only operated 3 hours the first night. I intended to operate the second
night, but I called my neighbors about something else and found out that I had
blown their phone system away. It rang, woke them up, etc. They finally
disconnected all their phones and went back to sleep. They didn't call me to
complain though.
I tried the K-COM 160 meter filter on their phones (they already had the
80m-10m
filters installed on all phones), but their *digital* house phone system
apparently uses signaling in the notch of the 160M filter, so they just didn't
work at all with the 160M filter installed. Oh well. I decided not to operate
the second night and save any remaining the goodwill for the ARRL DX next
weekend. :-)
