[Elecraft] Iambic Paddles -- Show-n-Tell
I have wanted a set of magnetic paddles for about a year now to use with my K1 and K2. I decided to try to make my own and after a few weeks of designing, I just completed a set. I used rare earth magnets instead of springs. It is constructed using stainless steel and aluminum. The top is black anodized aluminum and I used gold contacts. A picture of the paddles can be seen here: http://tinyurl.com/cbwta I really like the feel that I get with magnets instead of spings. Pretty smooth. 73 Jeff K9ESE ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.

Re: [Elecraft] Compromise/Limited Space/Make My Day Antenna Advice
Thom, You could purchase a 20 to 30 foot fiberglass, telescoping fishing pole and mount it on your second floor deck so that it slopes at a 45 degree angle or so. You can run a wire up the pole to the tip and allow enough wire to hang off of the tip so that it can not be touched by someone on the ground. You can run a single counterpoise from your secod floor deck down to the ground. I operate like this when on vacation at a beach house and at Field Day. I duct tape a 2" ID x 2 foot long PVC pipe to the deck at 45 degrees and then slide the pole into the PVC pipe. When I am done operating, I retract the pole and reel in the line. Let us know what you decide to do and how it turns out for you. Many of us could benefit from hearing more about the antenna(s) you build and try. 73 Jeff K9ESE - Original Message - From: "Thom R LaCosta" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Tuesday, August 23, 2005 5:48 PM Subject: [Elecraft] Compromise/Limited Space/Make My Day Antenna Advice I could use a suggestion or twoI live in a very congested areamy house is 11 foot wide and 25 feet long...with a yard that is 10 feel deepI have a 10 by 10 deck on the second floor. I used to have an endfed wire that ran across the street to a phone pole...but new houses cut that off. There is a vent pipe on the back of the house that sticks up about 5 feet above the roof.

Re: [Elecraft] Your favorite bands
Love 40 meters! Always open to somewhere from East Central Indiana. It's fun to listen to 40 meters after local sundown and hear the states west of the Mississippi start rolling in. After 0300 the entire western US is reachable on a few watts. I enjoy 20 meters because I never know where it will be open tocould be EU, could be KS, could be anywhere. I hang out around the FISTS calling freq of 14058 kHz. Always someone there to QSO with. I visited Trev's (K6ESE) website and looked at some of the items he purchased from "The Radio Room." Gosh, I hope that one day 40 years from now I will be such a QRP legend that they manufacture coffee mugs, lunch boxes and t-shirts with my picture on them (ASHTABULA BILL).

RE: [Elecraft] QSK Thump on KX-1
Update I operated late last evening and the QSK thump stayed consistant all evening long. This morning, I turned the rig on and over a two hour period and two QSO's I did not experience any thump at all. I was using the same antenna as last evening and same external battery pack with a voltage of 10 volts. Maybe it healed itself! :) 73 Jeff KB9ZUR From: "Jeff Imel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Subject: [Elecraft] QSK Thump on KX-1 Date: Sun, 13 Jun 2004 15:14:07 -0500 My KX-1 is serial number 32. It was built this week and it is a lovely rig. I do have a problem with QSK thump. I am wondering if any of you have experienced this and I am interested in learning what you did to correct it. It thumps when it goes from transmit to receive and the receive audio slowly comes back up to normal after about a half of second. It does not do it all the time, only after I have been sending for about a minute. Once it starts thumping, it will continue to thump until I cycle power. Sometimes that removes the thump, sometimes it doesn't. I have tried using three different antennas with and without an external tuner and nothing removes the QSK thump. I experience QSK thump on all bands. Any ideas?
