Maybe this would be of interest... Space Weather News for May 11, 2000 Material from a coronal mass ejection that left the Sun on May 8 is expected to pass by our planet late on May 11 or early May 1
Hello all, Yes, THIS time it is really official! Not when a few months ago some sort of association said that it was official in a greatly distributed press release... From now on, as the text says,
IL s'agit d'une question de "week-ends", sauf que pour le week-end āvenir, je ne serais pas actif, malheureusement. Puis, le week-end suivant, il y a le CQ WW WPX CW Contest, auquel je vais participe
Frustrating isn't it? However, my full-size dipole has been up during the december storm, and it works very well in RX mode and should (I hope) work in TX mode as soon as the amplifier is finished. F
Hi Rik, Hi all, Yes, it should work, since my first tests have been successful in RX aswell as in TX mode. The only thing is that you must be clear of any electromagnetic source, such as power lines,
Hi folks! Our (my wife and me) website is growing. We now have a LF chapter including the brand new French official text regarding the possibility for amateurs to use the 136 kHz band, and a short in
Hi Rik, Hi All, I suggest you wait until I get on the air with my dipole. It's only 12 m above ground, works quite well on RX and the first tests telle me that it's going to work on TX. But, as you s
Hi Mike, I have often noticed that I can read a signal better on the tiny speaker in the lid of my IC-706 Mk1 than I can when I put on headphones. In fact I use phones only to exclude external noise,
Hi, Mike Dennison a *crit : I know those times - when even the birds seem to be sending Morse . . . . Mike, G3XDV (IO91VT) http://www.dennison.demon.co.uk/activity.htm No, not only birds, also car br
I agree, and agree again. As the editor of the French edition of CQ, and I guess my American collegues will agree, the latest results of our CW contests confirm that CW has never been so popular. On
Hi Mal & group, I can hear 'something', but not strong enough to be readable. 73, Mark, F6JSZ -- http://perso.club-internet.fr/sovergne -- g3kev a *crit : There is an on/off (A1A)keyed reversals tran
Information of interest: What is different about the CFA? As an example, a CFA only 21 feet (6.5 m) tall, located at Tanta in the center of Egypt, provides AM broadcast service at 1.16 MHz (258 Meter
Talbot Andrew a *crit : The real question is, why was the quarter wave antenna worse, not why was the CFA so good. A 1/4 monopole can approach 100% efficiency and can be 3dB up on a dipole when erect
Hi Rick, Hi all, I'll be constructing one of these antennas starting from next weekend. All the literature about it seem's so interesting that I will absolutely try one. I'll start with 160 meters an
Hi Les, Your proposal is very interesting. However, the French edition of CQ magazine has already proposed the LFCC and the award is supposed to be available diring autumn this year... The brand "LFC
Hi Marc, So, I see you're really on the air now. Congratulations! On my side, I've been quite rare on the air, even on HF and VHF+, since I'm changing job. The LF station is still alive, however, at
