The Adventure paddle, when mounted to the KX2 with the Begali KX3

discussing this with Lyle, KK7P, and he suggested that if the leg were

Better antennas = better communication.
Transmit antennas are not always be best antennas for reception.
Propagation determines communications.
Power has little to do with propagation when it is in your favor.

that modulation, like ANY amplitude modulation, produces sidebands,
which will excite distortion in a non-linear amplifier. I don't know
enough about Warren's Pure Signal system to know if it could be used on

No offense taken - I understand your intentions for the reply. Low antennas are
a formula for trouble if proper precautions aren't taken. Common sense "should"
come into play, but we've all seen or heard of examples of hams so focused on
the antenna itself, they fail to think about what mi
Yes but CW (and FSK/RTTY) are dead according to the FCC and ARRL.
Now its all modes that require linear amplification over at
least 2.7 KHz. Better get used to it!

SDR based predistortion are most effective if the individual stages
