Hi Stefan,
Well my praise for your signal strength certainly was not meant to imply =
a derogatory comment on PA0A=E2=80=A6 Your sig was just very strong. As =
it is now, clearly audible. Regular CW would be no problem at all.
As for your remark w.r.t. the building of a PA.. well I stand =
corrected..I really really must find the time to finish my 137 setup. =
Afraid that I see nothing finished in the near future. alas.. L

Hello Minto,=20
Thanks. But i am afraid that it sounds not good for the other OMs who =
joined in, i mean it looks like if we are competitors, not friends who =
share a great hobby.
Just want to make clear here that my goal is not to be the king or so. I =
do what i can to make up a good signal but this does not relative the =
great signal of the others. PA0A's signal was often as strong as mine at =
OE3GHB although he is in a higher distance.
The actual goal is to increase activity and allow as many as possible =
OMs to receive a signal, which is often a requirement for newcomers to =
find the motivation to build a own PA :-)
Starting again in 15 minutes.

Hi Stefan,
See attached screenshot =E2=80=93 just dug it up from my saved =
screenshots.
As you can see you were significantly stronger than PA0A =E2=80=93 =
more than 5 dB.. nice!

feedback!
