And I made several contacts on 6 meters, which was open to the extreme
south east and south west. I also got some good information about my
station. Someone had told me before that I had a hum on my signal.
So I asked the person I was talking to, and they said no, there's no
hum. But another got on there and said, yes sir, you have a hum.
Then the first station came back and said that on second thought, yes
I did have a hum.
So I removed my mike, and put in the stock mike on my FT-450 and then
they told me it was gone.
So now I have some work to do on that connector before the contest,
because it's a Heil Pro-Set, which are great for working contests.
rules, spirit, roving, circling....sorry I guess that was in my
keyboard buffer.
