Why does it always do this when I'm trying to test an antenna?

[IRCA] Format change at WSSP-1250?
Has anyone heard anything about a possible format change at WSSP-1250 in Milwaukee? Jim Rome mentioned on his nationally syndicated program on Friday that it was his last day on the air there and that the station had made a decision to go "local", in his words. 73, Rick Dau South Omaha, Nebraska AM/LW/SW: Kenwood R-5000 + Quantum QX Pro loop ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com

Re: [IRCA] More on noise suppression
Please forgive my ignorance here as I remain quite confused. How does one wind rather thick coax or CAT5 around small toroid rings. A picture or link will be worth a thousand words here. http://www.dxing.info/equipment/coax_leadin_bryant.pdf is an article where Dr. Bryant (RIP old friend) was able to make a choke winding tiny coax many turns, but I can't see how this is possible with something link RG58 unless I don't understand how to make a choke. Following Dr. Bryant's guidelines, I unhooked my BOG from the xfmr and was getting S5 to S6 on the super strong close Chicago superpowers and a few semi-locals also were still audible, some barely moving the S-meter. So I have some work to do. 73 KAZ -Original Message- >From: Mark Durenberger >Sent: Jul 30, 2011 3:43 PM >To: Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America > >Subject: [IRCA] More on noise suppression > >Here's a paper that Fair-Rite publishes on core materials.

Re: [IRCA] Cat5
Me too !! Please write one and with pictures if possible and I remain very confused about how to use CAT5 as a coax replacement since it has 4 sets of twisted pair. -Original Message- >From: Tim Kridel >Sent: Jul 30, 2011 12:36 PM >To: "irca@hard-core-dx.com" >Subject: Re: [IRCA] Cat5 > >> If there's more >> interest, I could put an article on the am-dx.com site. >> >> Craig Healy > > >Yes, I'd like to see a how-to article about using Cat5 for a variety of DXing >applications.

They're a nighttime regular here, but they're a bit stronger than usual tonight -- may have left the 50 kw day rig going. 73, Rick Dau South Omaha, Nebraska AM/LW/SW: Kenwood R-5000 + Quantum QX Pro loop From: "amd...@core.com" To: irca@hard-core-dx.com; dx...@nrcdxas.org Sent: Sun, July 31, 2011 11:41:54 PM Subject: [IRCA] WLNO 1060 in with good signal WLNO 1060 New Orleans is in with near solid signal this evening with Gospel preacher.
