Tonight could be the most fantastic night of the season on Top Band. Just a prognostication from East Texas; YMMV. Now, if we could just get those stations in those rare zones to turn on their radios

Someone please post the DX Window frequencies for the contest tonight. I don't care where it is, but we all need to know so that we can respect it. It is surprising how many big gun regular participa

My understanding is that US and VE stations should not call CQ in the window during times when it is possible for DX to be heard (i.e. from just before sun set to at least an hour after sun rise). (s

I'm in the same boat as you, Craig. How much better is a -140 db noise floor than a -130 db noise floor? Is it enough to warrant the cost of a new radio? Same with dynamic range; how much improvemen

Never use foam coax when winding chokes/baluns. The center conductor will migrate through the foam over time. Teflon dielectric is best. (((73))) Phil, K5PC _________________________________________
