I've been a ham for just over a year. I bought my SDR1000 a couple
of months ago after struggling with an ICOM 706 with limited
success. This morning I made my first international 40 meter RTTY
contact with Japan, 7L1WII in Ibaraka. The signal report was 599
and I'm running 100 watts from a home made wire loop lying on my
roof. I don't think I could have done that with a 706 in five years
with a beam at 100 feet.
I've learned a lot in a very short time because of all the
information that is out there on the reflector, the forum and the
telephone support from Gerald and Eric. Forgive me for sounding
gushy, but I couldn't help myself- the SDR is great!!! And "txs to
u" all for a great experience.
