Mal and the LF group , The problem is known Mal (caused by the protection circuit which measures the current to the antenna terminal ) but as the total resistance in my antenna system is 65 Ohms I ca
To Mal and the rest of the members of the LF group Tnx for your warning about the protection of the finals Mal . In my case the 1010,s did not explode without proper drive but only made a lot of nois
To the members of the LF group , As suggested by Mal G3KEV it is wise to fit a protection circuit in the modified ROPEX which prevents keying the transmitter in case of no drive caused by a disconnec

Dear Peter , Sorry to hear you leaving 136 Khz before we made our first QSO with manual CW . I was inspired by your books and my radiofriend Dick PA0SE to give it a try on that band .Looking forward
To all , Heard the special event station MB2HFC with manual CW this morning with signalstrenght 7 . I could not make a contact with my 150 Watts . Perhaps a high noise level at MB2HFC ? 73, William P

Dear Lars , Did hear your SAQ transmission of 1300Hrs UTC . Signal strenght 2 S points above noise in 300 Hz bandwidth with QRM. Rx Drake R7 with active antenna 30 cm,s long, more or less like PA0RDT
Dear All , In my Ropex transmitter I have a class D PA with 2 power fets Fairchild RFP 70N06 with rather generous ratings 70 Amps each and a max voltage of 60 Volts the supply voltage is 13.8 Volts a
Dear Jim , LF group . Tnx for your explanation of what happens inside the FETS . after reading your comment and of several others I think it will be wise to measure the SWR between the TX and antenna
Good luck Martin , Hope to hear your results , 73, William Oorschot PA0WFO -- Original Message -- From: "Martin Evans." <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday
Hi Martin , I am using a rather old Kenwood TS940 with Dave,s pre- amp which performs very well with a built in 270 Hz crystal-filter combined with the built in Audio Peak Filter which reduces a lot
Hi Geri , Heard your beacon last Sunday evening in plain CW with a signal strenght of 6-10 Db over the noise in a bandwidth of 300 Hz in my Drake R7 receiver with an active antenna more or less like
To All , Lacking a "Q"meter I use the following procedure : Connect the coil in series with a variable capacitor to a noise bridge with the RX output of the bridge to a receiver ( small bandwith of a
