41. Re: Topband: Using 80m 1/4 vertical on 160 (score: 1)

Thanks all for the comments. I am putting up a single DXE 80m 1/4 vertical. I can put out the proper radials. I will have to add some longer ones for 160. Now to figure out switching in and out 160 a

We had great luck from V47 in the 80's with a dipole at 45ft. 100 would have been fantastic. You will most likely need a receiving antenna like a beverage. It will make all the difference in the worl

The main receiver in the 990 is supposed to be better than the 2nd rcv. Things that make you go hmmmm. Mike W0MU BTW, the 2nd receiver in my TS-990 was consistently better at extracting very weak CW

The 2nd receiver in the 990 is essentially a 590 receiver so that makes sense. I would be pretty upset if the main 990 receiver was no better than the 590. What are you paying for. On 6/15/2014 10:22

With the right software and interfacing. The P3 gets the information from the IF of the K3. AND, I can click the display with a mouse to jump to that freq? Because if I can't, I may pass on the K3. I

You can easily build a "box" that allows you to switch in and out a receive antenna on the main coax line. It is pretty difficult to get a rig that does it all from 160-2m. Good luck! Mike W0MU I am

Really? Many remotes use K3's with one of the radios being another K3 or scaled back version of a K3. You still sit at the radio and turn the knobs. Remote radio has been around a lot longer than man
