Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft SSB Net results (4-17-11)
I had intentions of checking it Sunday and monitored the preceding net, but was called to breakfast about 30-min before net time (10am local). I got reading the newspaper and missed the net. I had an interesting contact earlier on 20m with W6SMJ/mobile south of Visalia, CA coming from the DX Conference. He could hear my 16w fairly well though QRM finally drown me out (I supposed it was all those guys with new KPA-500 tuning up!). Conditions seemed real good at that time. I use a Hygain TH3mk4 triband yagi at 50 feet. 73, Ed - KL7UW, WD2XSH/45 == BP40IQ 500 KHz - 10-GHz www.kl7uw.com EME: 144-1.4kw, 432-100w, 1296-testing*, 3400-winter?

It seems to be strongest somewhere in the Tri-state. I auto-notched it then tried to filter it out with no luck (notch helps but its still very distinct). Another note, I don't know about everyone else but 20m at 2PM EDT (1800z) yesterday was very very noisy. -aps __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html

I noticed it too, and found that using AutoNotch reduced it enough to hear some weak stations through it. 73, Lyle KK7P __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Elecraft] Elecraft SSB Net results (4-17-11)
Propagation was OK. Nothing too long however. The frequency (14.316 MHz) was plagued by some type of pulsed QRM - short pulses at about a 2 second interval, about S6 here in Oregon with my antenna pointed east. I was able to copy through it without too much trouble. We had 25 participants over a 21 minute period. Here is the list of participants.
