Hello All
I think Rik is right , looking abt the difference between long wire and
toploaded vertical .
My first qso with Ruda OK1DTN on 11-2-2001 give 3-3-9 rcvd 4-3-9
My second qso with Ruda was on 25-2-2001 give 5-7-9 rcvd 4-3-9
So my vert. was stable , and big difference on His sig. , unless He uses now
an amplifier .
Best 73 to All

Have heard OK1DTN for the last 2 weeks several times with good signals,
from 559 up to 589. But so far I always called him in vain.
Most of the time he has a fair amount of QSB on his signal (compared to
others at the same distance).
I wouldn't be surprised if he was running a long wire antenna, I getting
the impression that stations with relatively long wire antennas have more
QSB than those with small toploads or pure verticals.
Could it be that long wires radiate at steeper angles and thus produce
more
skywave ?
