Author: rmread@attglobal.net (R Marshall-Read)
Date: Thu, 5 Dec 2002 04:37:23 -0000
Brad, I have to agree with Tom W8JI, I have used the MFJ units all over the world, and they are the best you can get for the job. I also use them to phase my beverages and other receive antennas and

Date: Sun, 27 Oct 2002 17:55:35 -0000
Topbanders, It was an enlightening experience with poor conditions almost inside the auroral oval, very low power, at times a marginal antenna, and a call that took a LONG time to transmit. In the fi

Top Banders, Working a thousand miles from home Monday to Friday makes anything but weekend operation problematic. However, since I have now settled in at the new location with loads of room for beve

Topbanders, Over the past two years or so I have been using all manner of 'aerial' supports for Top Band aerials. Some have prompted, as Tom W8JI commented, "UFO reports in the neighbourhood", others

Topbanders, Wondered how long it would take for everyone to realise, top loading is the KEY! Drooping, not drooping, makes little difference. I was in the MW (medium wave) business for many years pri

Topbanders, With a limited equipment list here in /4X it is difficult to analyse in depth, but recent politics in this region have made it a 'target' of MW broadcasts and now we have intruders in the
