on my we site i have been collecting some of the common technical
questions and answers. checking here for something that sounds like
a common question may save repetition of a discussion on the reflector.
for the index to the technotes collected off these reflectors start
at: http://www.berkshire.net/~robbins/technote/techref.html
for a listing of updates by date check out:
http://www.berkshire.net/~robbins/new.html
for links to ham related sites, including hardware and software
sources start at: http://www.berkshire.net/~robbins/hamlinks.html
(i will be moving some of that info to the technote area soon so it
can be found under the technote topics headings)
some samples of topics that are on this site:
my 80m wire yagi design, w3lpl yo files for 10-40m yagis, sources
of antenna materials, resetting faults on the alpha 87a, cable and
connector loss figures, computer software and hardware tips, various
antenna feeding discussions, maps and compasses and how to find true
north, grounding, anti-oxidant materials, propagation beacon lists,
great circle maps, wwv info, info on ft-1000mp extended menus, mods
for ts-870 for beverage antennas, ferrite bead specs, 2 radio setup
techniques, swaged guy wire fittings, and loos tension gauge.
these may not all be real pretty yet, but there is lots of useful
information. if you have additions please send to me direct by e-mail.

Subject: Sum: CW contest filters
Message-ID: <199702081636.JAA29001@sun.3rivers.net>
Thanks very much for all the responses regarding CW Contest filters. Here is
a brief rundown of the 26 responses received: PRIMARY FILTER WIDTH USED.
250Hz 400/500Hz Wide Open
----- --------- ---------
4 19 3
Of course, many contestors mentioned they have both 250 and 500 Hz filters.
The above info is what these 26 primarily operate in contests.
Thanks again. Many of the posts were "cc'd" to the reflector, but if you
want add'l info lemme know.

Well, Some time ago I asked the same. I got 2 answers. 1 in favor and the
other against (this op, I don't remember his call, has a good reason since
he went to Dayton, and then took off to his Dxpedition destination!)
My vote is for!
