Asking a question automatically makes it non-stupid :-)
Once I have my K3 with the KRX3 - working split, listening on the Rx freq in
1 ear and the Tx in the other should be a breeze - right?
I don't know and would like to hear the answer from one or more of the
E-Guru's too.
If 3B7C is working on 14.150 (their Tx) and working 5 up (their Rx)
What is the correct term for the 14.145 freq and the term for the 14.150
freq?
"QRG 3B7C 14.150 QSX 14.155" which technically translates to:
"The exact frequency of 3B7C is 14.150 and he is listening on 14.155"
A great listing of way more Q-signals than you'll ever want to know can
be found at <www.geocities.com/wa6tbh> Some are sort of quaint, and
several are carefully tailored to one group of people:
QRP: "Shall I reduce power? Aeronautical Note: Refers to
communications" ... since some fighter pilots might be expected to
confuse the transmitter power with the throttle? :-)
We hams love to "nounify" Q-signals. Thus, we'll say, "The QRM is
terrible tonight," or "3B7C's QRG is 14.150 and last I checked, his QSX
was 14.155" We will sometimes "verbify" them as well: "W6XXX, please
QSY, you're QRM'ing the Digestive Disorders net."
