This morning was probably the best I've seen the band in the last year, at least toward VK/ZL. The ZL digi was stronger than I've heard it in a very long time. VK3ZL was 569, little QSB and srtonger

As I write this a half hour before sunrise, the "noise" is a couple S-units above the noise floor on my NW Beverage. Much lower on the West wire and can't hear it at all on the SW wire. It probably i

Everything here was best on the 30&deg; Beverage, the 60&deg; Bev was down noticeably. 20 EU's in the log last night, no dup's from previous days. 73, Larry - W7IUV DN07dg http://w7iuv.com __________

Looks like I missed th ebest part of the opening. Didn't get on until 0500z and then tired out quick and went to bed. Did manage to bag ES5TV for a new entity and several others I didn't work earlier

All the EU signals I've copied over the last ten days or so have been best on the 30 degree Beverage. They are all down on the the 60 degree beverage and nil on the 90 degree Beverage. The Inv-V at 7

I'd like to add a few "local" observations. Ap and Kp are good indicators for wide area conditions but I've had poor correlation to my local results on 160. The USGS has a magnometer site at Newport,

If your goal is to optimize the picture on your computer then by all means use 5/8 wave spacing. If you live 10 miles out from the nearest power line or computer, there is no question that 5/8 wave s

I disagree. I have looked at the EZNEC plots and I see the same thing and arrive at different conclusions. I see the nice nulls at 30 degrees elevation changing to peaks at 2 degree elevation. I see

Pat, as far away as you can is the short answer. Do you use elevated radials? If so place the pennant as far away from the radials as you can without regard to the tower. Elevated radials cause more

Charles, If you put the 300' wire ten feet in the air I can understand the poor performance. Short "Beverages" work best near the ground. When I was restricted to less than 300', I experimented with

I suspect that if Stew were on the band today, he could work DXCC in a couple of good weekends. I also suspect he wouldn't much like what he would hear on the band these days. Lets see, it took me ab
