Don I am also working some CQ 160 stations with my new today K3 # 2452 with my Zero Five 43' vertical. The short vertical works much better than a low full size dipole I also put up today.
The K3 sounds really nice and all AOK thus far. 73, Bob W5OV -----Original Message----- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Don Rasmussen Sent: Saturday, January 24, 2009 9:27 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] OT: CQ 160m contest on K3 Having no antenna long enough for 80m much less 160m, is sad. But when I hear reports of a band on fire I go searching for a wet noodle. Tonight we are feeding the center conductor of the GAP eagle into a Palstar tuner. Guess what - we are being heard. Antenna is effectively on the ground, that's a plus for high angle radiation - hi. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
