Comments:
Kenwood 940S
130' allband dipole @ 45'
40M loop @ 55'
The 20M loop had a fight with the lawn mower on Sat. morning and lost.
3/8 wave inverted L for 160
High and Low points...
My ears are still ringing and my head still hurts from the noise level.
Can anybody tell me the secret of adjusting the VOX on the 940? This is only
the second try at an SSB test with the thing and it drove me nuts for the first
two hours. Either the VOX gain was too high or too low, or the anti VOX was too
high or too low. It was really hard to get the two adjusted right, and then
when I would change bands, I'd have to adjust them all over again. Is this
normal for the 940? (running the headset through the sound card with writelog)
Ran into N4YDU on 20 and asked him to go to ten. Found him up there CQing with
lots of takers. Worked him for NC on 10 and picked up 4 more mults at a time I
never would have tried 10. Shut down for 2 1/2 hrs. when sparks from rain
static started flying around inside the JOHNSON Match Box. Where was everybody
on 160? All in all, I'd rather it be CW or January.
