Hi well I've only been QRV since June here but the QRN level seems noticeably worse than my previous QTH in the W6 desert even though my current QTH is also quiet, limited by only propagated QRN. Man

I agree with Tom's assessment. I wouldn't be too quick to give up on your tx 4 square. Having a tx 4 square, a 1/4 wave vertical, and an 8 circle rx array, I find the 4 square really does hear quite

Tom, In your opinion; given a receive antenna with negative gain, at what level does the negative gain start to come into play? -25 dBi, -35 dBI  ? Jim -- Original Message -- Dave, Just curious. Why

Bob-- Just curious -- How is your reception around sunrise, when most of the thunderstorms in the Americas are in daylight, and therefore their QRN probably isn't reaching you? Art, KB3FJO __________

Hi thanks to all for the replies. Sorry I wasn't clear my QTH is northern Thailand. The point I was trying to make is that even though it is a noisy part of the season it is apparently less noisy at

Bob, If you have a choice of one or the other the choice is easy: the transmit 4-square as an excellent transmit array as well as an excellent receive array. Good luck! 73 Frank W3LPL -- Original mes

Bob, with US and European stations operating top band during the winter only you will only work them during your summer. So, you will always be subject to higher noise at your end of the path. Dave _

Hey Dave! (he was my first QSO as a novice 43 years ago) I am located at 20 degrees N. Actually my choice is between a 160m Xmit 4 square and concentric 80/160m 8 circle RX arrays. __________________

Bob, I suggest you contact Peter XU7ACY and get his take on working 160 DX from your area of the world. In my contacts with him, receiving has been his biggest problem. Lee K7TJR OR _________________
