Dear LF Group,

 

M0BMU transmitted a beacon signal from about 0000utc until 0523, at which point the TX power supply failed.

This QRS business is severe on PA fets and some psu's, especially the slower crawls. Anything beyond QRS 3 - 10 could be fatal over long periods for most rigs. Any sudden antenna instability, windy condx, showers then sunshine ie SWR variations are tricky at the vy slow speeds, even the Decca Jeeps have been know to blow smoke in amateur applications.

Hope u get it fixed soon, you are a big signal especally at night time when ur antenna is higher, YXM is also very strong with me and I do like the competition.
