This is a very broad question! If I had no limitations, financial or
regulatory, I would probably get a large Steppir beam on a tower at
least 70' tall. But that is probably not what you are thinking of.
A simple, cheap antenna is a dipole up as high as possible -- no less
than 30 feet in the
I think there's a selection effect; when someone learns Morse quickly
and it becomes known that they're musically inclined then folk make a
correlation. However, when musically inclined folk struggle to learn
Morse their musical inclination is either dis-regarded, or they hear
things like "You'
My monitor reports "no signal" from my P3 SVGA. I've gone into the
menu and enabled SVGA and set the resolution. Is there anything else
I need to do?

Yes, I have been successful in getting the RPi B+ and RPi2 (both Wheezy
Raspian and Jessie Raspian) to connect to the KX3 with the Elecraft
supplied cables and two different USB sound cards (Griffin iMic and
Creative Labs). Plug and play for me. The device you need to look for is

It's an 80 meter dipole, off center fed.
It has a broad swr bandwidth on 80 meters. What does that mean?

Hello all..This AM on 160 meters there was a station CQing on 1.820.6 with
a fundamental freq signal strength of S9 on my K3. I also found (with the NB
on) that I could hear him Q5 but very weak on 1.810.6 and the same S 0 reading
but perfectly Q5 on 1.830.6. I turned the noise blanker of

Please, don't take my comment seriously. It was tongue in cheek. There is one
installed here serving a remote Elecraft station.
On at least one band, 17 meters, and one simple test, the Steppir at 45 feet
beats the Buckmaster
Hi Craig,
DX'ing with the KX3 (or any QRP radio) for that matter can be very
challenging as you don't have the power to break pile-ups. Thus, you're
either going to need to get a high gain antenna, e.g. tower and beam, or
I would suggest digital modes. I've had a lot of success with WAS usin

Lot's of good info, but let's end this thread now in the interest of reducing

Most antennas are a compromise of sorts whether it's installation height,
length, material. .etc. If you actually understand the physics and associated
math in addition to propagation then you innately understand there's no one
perfect antenna for everyone in the real world. When you're startin

One other note - I see you posted to Elecraft and topband reflectors on your
post. Please do not cross post when posting to the Elecraft list as that in-turn
causes a flood of email to the other list and back to here, including bounce
messages from non-members that fill our admin emaibox.
73,
Conflating narrow bandwidth with high efficiency isn't a good thing to do,
necessarily. Efficient 160 verticals across the band can be realized if one
"fattens the radiating element."

I forget about WSPR, but as JT9 etc uses Hamlib for rig control, just
guessing, but did you build the Hamlib rig control library and get all
that installed and working?
You can use the command line or an app called "Grig" (no doubt others
too) to test Hamlib.

Great post Guy,
I also encountered occasional noise on 160, (neighborhood Christmas

worked as you have described below. In addition, I found that switching in the

I attributed it to recognition or rhythm patterns. Two examples are Q is "here
