HI All, I am hoping someone has come across this problem I am having with my TS-480S/AT. It appears to be mainly on 20mtrs and has a frequency step of 61Khz. It appears on 14.094, 14.155, 14.216, 14.277, etc. I have checked it right up and down, and it does get quieter as it moves out of the

It can be awfully helpful at times to have a portable battery powered shortwave receiver so you can listen to the interference while you are walking around, and with all your AC power shut off.

I have to agree with John. During the flooding along the Mississippi river last spring 2M was just about useless. Since I had a HF set up in my pickup with a VX1700 mounted all I had to do was set up the laptop and SCS modem. Most traffic was passed to either a VE3 station on 40M or 30M or to a

I am a member of the WINMOR reflector and I am encouraged by the author's intentions. However, since I have avoided Pactor and used thinks like AirMail and Winlink very little over the past couple of years, I am not sure just what the intended beta use of WINMOR will be. I have seen the

Andy, It is a soundcard ARQ mode. It will allow a more economical way to access the Winlink 2000 system, and give a higher through-put than Pactor 1 There will probably be other uses, but I believe that to be the prime reason for it's development. I don't know the nuts and bolts of it,
