For many of us, Remi, FK8CP, was our first (and only) topband QSO with FK8
What follows is an edited (for English context) version of a letter he
enclosed with his QSL card. I apologize for the bandwidth if this has already
been posted.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am having problems with reception on 160 due to 15 kV power lines and to the
general city and industrial noise.
In the 1990s [when he lived in a more rural area] I spent a great deal of time
improving reception. I had, at that time, twelve 250 M Beverages.
Unfortunately, I now live on a small city lot. My noise is high…
I am looking for reasonably priced parts and accessories, including:
*Relays and parts for detuning my transmitting antenna during reception
*A noise canceller
*A front end protector or T/R sequencer
*A preamplifier
*Hardware for a short Beverage or for short loops
*An antenna analyzer
*Efficient RFI filters for 160
