Wow! Now *that's* an opening! I had expected to take a nap and stay up looking for ZL after 0700, but the band sounded like 40m to EU. The high point, by far, is making my first EU QSO with G0IVZ. 10

I heard a number of stations (DL3KDV, G0IVZ, and others) calling for W6/7 last night, with the result that many of us got through. Thanks, guys! Also thanks to the good East Coast and Midwest ops tha

Author: hwardsil@wolfenet.com (Ward Silver)
Date: Tue, 21 Jan 1997 14:05:24 -0800 (PST)
I think some of the odd signal strength behavior is due to multiple paths open at once, maybe close to each other in azimuth. Since the paths are so long, their signal strengths vary considerably, ov

Date: Sun, 1 Dec 1996 18:29:14 -0800 (PST)
What's the collective opinion on these things? Are they worth the $150+? Noise to be cancelled here is mainly just spotty power-line noise and BC harmonics. Just reply to me if you please. 73, Ward N

Since the starting bell for the North American Christmas Frenzy (r) has rung, I suppose it's fair to assume that I can inflict my particularly warped sense of Christmas Cheer on y'all. Like the holid

Aside from bad puns about trunk lines and branch circuits... My inverted-L relies on a stout redwood (these aren't trees, they're wooden pyramids) to support the vertical wire. At the feed point, the

With all the brow-furrowing over the FT1000MP, I though a little levity might be in order. Blatantly purloined from the immortal Janis Joplin's "Mercedes Benz"... Oh Lord, won't you buy me a 1000D My

On the subject of birdies, I'll remind everyone that the Tailtwister rotor control boxes have a number of unbypassed rectifiers in them that can easily generate mixing products from RF on the control

The jury is hopelessly deadlocked between "Trees - Evil RF Suckers" and "Trees - Our Green Friends". Lots of anecdotal evidence on both sides, but the suckers have the more pithy stories. The key poi

Questions, questions, questions flooding into the mind of the concerned young person of today... What is the availability of the W9GR DSP kit? It doesn't seem to be advertised in any of the magazines

I will be in Tampa over the 160 test weekend between bid'niss meetings. Is there a multi-op effort in the vicinty that could use another op? Or even a single-op that wants a kibitzer? Please reply di

It seems to me that ducting between the E and F-layers would provide an explanation for the "searchlight" effect observed recently. The landfall of the searchlight would relate to finding stations wi

V73GT was about S2 (with respect to the noise floor) in WA at 1314Z on 1827.2. Even though he was very weak, he came back to my 100W call on the first try with 459, so I guess he is hearing well. 73,

The RG-59 thread has been interesting...and leads me to a further question...why not use cheap 300-ohm TV twin-lead? It even matches at the Beverage end. Seems like stray pick-up would be marginal, l

If you have the exact pole and the noise is modified by hitting the pole, then there is some seriously flakey hardware. Call them and tell them that you are reporting a pole that has arcing in its HV
