Not entirely true. Because I can hear much better than most guys running
JT65, I typically run 200-400W on TopBand to get over the monstrous
noise levels that have become all too common in cities and subu
George,
While there may be many that disagree with me I love digital modes on 160. I
primarily use JT65 and it has been one of the reasons that I have worked Japan

going to have him drill the holes and I'll
Hi George,
My own experience with those modes that can dig out signals from below
the noise is they are too slow to be any use for much beyond
"propagation studies". I am doing a very little bit of that on the 600
meter band. The typical story is set the radio and the computer and let
it run all n
Hi Topbanders,
I would like to bring up a topic which I suspect must be tantamount to
heresy among the diehard CW operators and that is the question of the use of
some of the digital modes on the "Gentleman's Band".
It may be that CW can still hold its own by the speed and simplicity and us
