I'm in the process of converting from dos loggers to N1MM/Writelog for cw. Computer keying comes from the LPT port, hooked to the rig's hand key input. Hand-sent cw is from a paddle hooked to the rig
It looks like Gorham, ME is in the 80+ wind zone. At 80 mph, no ice, the Rohn catalog says 11.3 sq ft max of antenna centered at 10' above the top bracket. If you go 20' above the bracket, the allowa
