Or get on in the evenings with the rest of us. 75 tends to die in the afternoons before coming back to life in the evening. Many daytime AMers use 40, then switch to 75 later. Of course, many of us have to actually get stuff done outside before the wx gets colder too, as you noted. ~ Todd KA1KAQ __ AMRadio mailing list List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Partner Website: http://www.amfone.net Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:AMRadio@mailman.qth.net
[AMRadio] 75 Meter Contact
Called CQ on 3880 Khz this afternoon and thank goodness on my 5th attempt a very nice gentleman from Fort Washington, Maryland called me on "slop bucket" - I mean SSB. I caught my call and quickly turned the emission control on my Collins 75A-1 to CW to make contact. He switched his rice box to AM and we had a very delightful QSO on two-way AM. Perhaps, I need to turn on my BFO from now on since the AMers were obviously outside enjoying the nice Autumn day!
