I remember my first time ever at the key as DX from the Caribbean. We were just barely off the plane, and I sat down at the VP5B station on 160m CW. It was a few nights before the CQWW SSB 2003 conte

Garry just described one my Beverage antennas. It's the best QSO-per-dollar investment ever made in my station. I would not be without it. I used 185-footer that worked on 80 and 40, and occasionally

I have been plagued recently by a noise source which is wiping out signals on the 160m and 80m bands. It is 20dB louder on my SW Beverage than any other direction. The noise is intermittent, and come

My beverage ladder lines also have a readable label. My convention is: "Reading it right-side up, the bottom of the letters are (-) and the top of the letters are (+). 73, Kirk K4RO _________________

Hi Steve, Thanks for several contest QSOs over the last year. It's nice to see that you are active on many bands including 160M, and having some fun with the contests as well. After looking at your p

Gary, I use the IT-1000 here. If your connectors have a removable back side (with O-ring seal) place it on the the cable first. Then hand twist the connector onto the stripped coax (gloves help.) You

At a hamfest years ago I saw some UFO's on a table. Me: "What kind are they?" Vendor:"I don't know, what's best?" Me: "People seem to like type 43 for HF/VHF and 31 for MF/HF suppression." Next time

I've used a video selector box (for 75 ohm RF, with F connectors) that Radio Shack used to sell. It was a 4-in 2-out matrix, and allowed either of two radios to have any of the 4 available antennas.

Thank you very much for trying Luke. I was the 80m op who requested that you try to work K3LR on 160m. Unfortunately, we were not able to complete any 160m QSOs with VK this year. 73, --Kirk K4RO On
