I missed A25R on 3.5 last night by a minute or so as my amp didn't warm up quickly enough; but I haven't seen them or TX7L spotted on 1.8 MHz, or TX7L on 3.5. Are they on those bands? Should be a cra

Ed, which way did you model it: fore-and-aft, or did you also model side-to-side?? It seems intuitive that if the offset is side-to-side (STS), then the main distortion would be the main lobe would d
