LU7EE was calling CQ today on 1822 kHz at 0950z. He couldn't hear me but I heard N7UA work him a few minutes later. Then was quite surprised to hear JF7DZA answer our CQ on 1824 kHz at 1020z, about 1

At a previous QTH in northern Delaware, I had a 200-meter long Beverage along one border of my property. One end was at an elevation of 27 meters above sea level, the other end at 9 meters above sea

I haven't modeled, but in two actual cases -- one with 70 foot of Rohn 25, the other with 100 feet -- I had a 204BA on the mast a few inches above the tower. On the 70-footer I added a Wilson 4-el 15

Hi Bill, I have run some that close with no problem. I think rule of thumb is to keep them at least as much distance apart as they height above ground. Mine are typically 10 feet high. 73/Jon AA1K __

Nice to work VK6HD through the QRN at 1027z today, just a few minutes before sunrise here in Delaware. Signal peaked S6-7 on the west phased Beverages. Didn't hear the ZL beacons, nor any sign of DU9

Hi Al, Full-size 1/4 wave with Rohn 25 -- about 11 inches on a face -- is about 128 feet tall. Your tower should be pretty close to that, maybe slightly taller. Common method is to put up 120 feet of

Don, Elevating the long feed increases the chances of picking up stray RF on the feedline. Instead, consider running the cable through some small PVC pipe, or old garden hose. For such repairs to dam

I'm planning on using some insulating material under BPC25 and BPC55 Rohn base plates (and around the pier pin in the center) so the towers may be series-fed on 160. Is 7/16-inch thick enough for thi

Amazing to still copy TX9 about 45 minutes past our SR today. No joy in our log but congrats to those who made it. I heard them working the following (there were others): K2XA, K5NA, WB9Z, W4ZV, VK6H

Hi George, Heard them just long enough to call a few times but no QSO. QRN was terrible -- what a difference a day makes! Hope they try earlier too -- our best peak might be closer to their sunset or

The band also has been noisey here every day since. But this morning it started to quiet about 30 minutes before our sunrise, which was 1117z today. We had great hopes, but KH6ZM was the only signal

Charles, I was wondering too why no mention of the 940. I still have my TS-940S (bought in 1984) as a backup and SO2R radio. I ran many A/B tests when I first got the FT1000MP and found the 940 very
