Agreed. Maybe Management could take a poll or have a sign up sheet - kinda like my wife's aerobics class - if enough gals sign up, there is a class... otherwise not. If enough operators commit to buy
No problem with that outlook, KE... it all depends on your resources and threshold for economic pain. I purchased the Orion II for the same reason... my Omni VII works well... but I just plain wanted
YOU SEEM To BE SPECULATING. Also, I would be interested in learning exactly which spec you believe Rob dinged the Omni VII on. _____________________________________________ ... Ha - right! I suppose
Good post, Rick. Your statement about speculation here matches mine. So... My friend is looking for a "station monitor" - he wants an old Kenwood model, but said he would take a good shape Heathkit m
Thank you ... just the thing to try out my new antenna setup looking for some DX. -- JHR -- On 4/25/2014 9:29 AM, Bob McGraw - K4TAX wrote: Speaking of IMD, that is International Marconi Day, _______
Thanks, guys, for the uptake on using a Flex radio as a station scope. I "built" an SDR radio Kit, produced by the German FunkAmateur organization, called a FiFi-SDR Kit (there was a favorable blurb
THANKS for the uptake Andy... I will pass that on to my friend! Sorry to have missed you as you passed through. I enjoyed meeting you and the others before. Nice group. -- Happy days - K8JHR -- http:
I have used the Wellbrook ALA-100M receiving loop for over a decade with good results at two locations. It is a "medium or large aperture" loop, because you supply whatever size wire loop you want. I
THANKS GARY -- Yes... I get that. "The FiFi receiver is a very capable SDR with a newly upgraded on-board sound card that now runs with a 192 KHz sampling rate." and my sound cards can produce that h
Well... the Wellbrook and DX-E antennas I mention do. Not sure about Rick's loop. But even of that type, a preamp locate at the base of the loop is done. There are loads of articles on these receiver

RICK -- YOU GOT IT! ;-) A LOOP THAT BIG IS ... WELL... A WORK OF ART... AND THAT MIGHT GET HIM AROUND THE HOA RESTRICTIONS!! IT IS A SCULPTURE... er... yeah... ART... A BEAUTIFUL THING... A BIG HUGE
That is nice, but how is that relevant to a guy who can only be 10 feet above rooftop? I think that is Jim's limitation. -- K8JHR -- ___________________________________________________ ______________

That sounds a lot bigger then the Wellbrook Loops I am familiar with... I think they are more in the order of 1 m / 3ft across. Lots of SWLs put them in the attic. -- JHR -- Yes, Rick. my bad. I noti
Wellbrook makes them in different sizes - some are 1 meter circles, and then there is mine that uses whatever size wire loop you make. I put it in an attic and it worked fine with insulated wire. Wor
Maybe... I have found that not all switches are created equal. The less expensive ones lack sufficient isolation. You want one with at least 60 and maybe 70 dB isolation - better, if possible, but I

Golly - I had presumed you had performed a Master Reset at the outset. I concede I am a still rookie at much of this technical jazz, but with these computer processor based radios, the FIRST thing to
