DX is always a relative thing, one man's meat is another man's poison... As the first morning with my newly resonated 160m vertical I did not hear any dx myself though there were plenty of chaps call
Interesting comments John. You must certainly bear in mind that working crossband 80m to 500kHz is currently a very minor interest and something that the vast majority of users of 80m will be totally
Your static was obviously why you wre having difficulty trying to QSO G3UNT Mike. I was listening at the time, both excellent 589ish signals and way above my noise level and I heard you both repeated
With the back garden being only 45ft x 22ft radials, regardless of their number, are pretty ineffective on MF. Over the years I have tried all sorts of things, and there is quite a lot of wire buried
What would be interesting is if you could quantify any differences in the type of ground at the two QTHs. The much lower earth loss at the open site may well be due to totally different soil characte
Spurred on by you two I have just revisited MMANA-GAL with the simulation of my 500kHz vertical - pretty similar to your top loaded designs but without any top loading. I have shown it resonates (app
Well just got round to looking at this grabber after reading all the mails. Exactly the same here.... Firstly, note we are indeed talking about Javascript here, earlier emails talked about Java. How
Thanks for answering my own question Andy... The 7407.5 frequency is probably unusable because of broadcast QRM - there is a strong one at the moment on 7400. 6792.5 is probably OK though. But guess
Thanks for the explanation John. I am a little puzzled why Mark wanted to update every few seconds for something used to display 3 sec dot QRSS or slower where it takes several minutes for the trace
ALL NOVs expire on February 29th, mine certainly says that. The date of issue is irrelevant, I understand they will be sending renewals out automatically to everybody, presumably dated to start on Ma
It got wrapped.... Try http://tinyurl.com/3xge64 (and added to my website http://www.davesergeant.com/mf with an update on the extension). 73 Dave G3YMC http://www.davesergeant.com
It would certainly have made a QSO with 'TI9DX' this morning who was jamming the VP6DX Dxpedition on 7002 and not complained (the chap was heard to accidentally send UA3... once before realising he w
Thanks for the excellent news John! I plan to be back on the band in a month or two after this year's Top Band season has finished. But guess I won't be running much more than my present 5mW... 73 Da
I suspect the RSGB know nothing whatsoever about the workings of the blacksheep servers, they do not run them. Maybe John G3WKL can help, who was involved originally in setting the list up. In fact i
Yahoogroups is fine for moderated lists, where all new memberships (but not individual messages) are approved by the owner. But unmoderated ones are a spammers delight. Yahoogroups own Spamguard filt
Clever. Your subject line on this message though is wrong, it should read 'graphical javascript plot'. How many times do I have to tell people that Javascript is NOT Java, they are totally different
Oh dear dear dear...... Personally, while getting very bored with these petty arguments, beacons do nothing for me at all and there are plenty of other 500kHz operators who like me DO like normal QSO
Deepburner - http://www.deepburner.com/ - moved over to that a couple of years ago after various problems with Nero and have not looked back since. By the way the MS Bluetooth patch was re-issued las
