Its surprising how many amateurs subscriber to this reflector but have no
opinion, SITTING ON THE FENCE. !!!!!!!!!!!!
Come out of the woodwork and let us all know what you think.
G3KEV
As someone who was licensed around the same time as Mal (in Jan 1955 as
G3KEP after taking the May 1954 proper RAE), we had to spend 12 months
on CW with a maximum of 25 watts d.c. input, except on Top Band where is
was 10 watts.
Hence top band was a very popular band for new comers despite the QRM
from fish fone and Radio Loran. It is not surprising therefore that
people from that era are attracted to LF with home brew equipment. My
own 500kHz rig is a 6AC7 Clapp VFO / 6AC7 BA / 807 PA - reflections from
the old top bands days!
