[Elecraft] ECN 20m

[Fred Jensen]

2300Z 14050 nil ... no one heard.  Checked and antenna seems to be 
connected, heard some EU DX down low, but no ECN.


I'll try and make 40, don't hold your breath.  Our #1 grandson is 
marrying the love of his life on 5 May, she's a bit over the top at this 
point, and we think they may be coming over tonight.  I might need a 
stiff martini to recover, and I can't send well at all after a beer [or 
especially a martini], even assuming they leave in time.

[Elecraft] ECN 20M session for 30 July from VY2/W1OH

[geoff allsup]

Well, I tried!VY2/W1OH here on vacation east of Charlottetown, PEI. 
   Have the KX1 (#1317) at about 4 watts plus a real antenna:  80M 
doublet fed with twinlead at about 55 feet, and facing west about 100 
yards from saltwater!   Unfortunately, the band was changing rapidly, I 
 guess, at our sunset (fabulous sunset, BTW!  Always great here!) . 
One moment Kevin was reasonably strong, and had  just got my call, I 
think, then poof!  QSB took signals right out and I  didn't hear more 
than a couple of peeps after that - oh, well!Great fun to try from 
Prince Edward Island, especially after a weekend with a bit of IOTA then 
the FOBB contest!


For some pictures and a writeup of my stay at the same place and setup 
(but pre-KX1) last summer (2005), see my website:
