1. Topband: 160 Meter Propagation (score: 1)
Author: k0ha@navix.net (Bill Hohnstein KØHA)
Date: Thu, 19 Dec 2002 08:12:17 -0600
While not an extraordinary day, I felt that December 16th was a better than average day for propagation to Europe. There seemed to be a lack of activity then. 9A2AJ appeared to be the most active on

I spent a few hours operating the contest and found conditions a mixture of good and bad. I worked 15 Europeans. There were times when they were fairly strong, but also long times of nothing from acr

Over the weekend I took pictures of some longwave antennas used by local aeronautical beacon stations around 270 kHz. I mention them here since similar antennas are used on 160M and it may give some

All three of the antennas had the same sort of ground system. About a are connected to that wire. While I would assume that they go out in an even spoke fashion, all three antennas had that the radi

Date: Sun, 30 Jun 2002 23:59:04 -0500
I spaced off listening for ET3PMW on 160M until 8 days ago. The static level here has always made copy tough (my receive antennas are down for the summer with corn planted taking their place). While

I thought that others might benefit from a message that I received from Paul, ET3PMW (copy below). I added a couple of comments [in brackets]. 73, Bill K0HA Hello Bill, I heard you calling on 1826 ye

You're probably hearing the 5th harmonic of aircraft beacon EUR from Eureka, MT on 392 kHz and maybe the same thing from PNA also on 392 from Pinedale, WY. 73, Bill K0HA

I expected the "police" to be out in force for the contest... I didn't call CQ below 1843. I didn't call people from the United States or Canada below 1843. I DID answer the DX stations that were li

I obviously haven't been near as active on the top band this year as I have been in the past. I've beening doing other things this season like copying two LW/MF beacons from Greenland last night on 2

I've had good luck using the Hy-Tower on 160, 80, and 40 meters, although most of the time I've been using that antenna with additional tower sections added. As with all antennas the quality of its p

N4ZR: I have ordered the resistors from both Mouser and Digi-Key in the past (Digi-Key 800-344-4539 part #OY471K-ND $0.91 ea for 470 ohms). The actual resistance of these units seem to have more vari

I agree with W1BB's and K6SE's feeling about the DX window: I would think that the majority of the stateside stations agree with this. I'm curious as to what the prevailing thought in European is. I
