Re: [Elecraft] VP6DX scraping the bottom

I managed on 80m SSB at 07:25z the other day. Ok is was 120w, but I got a good 59, so I think 10 might have made it. G3YMC has had a 5w CW QSO - ok, he has to be a No.1 QRP guy, but it's possible to do. On 26/02/2008 21:00, "AD6XY - Mike" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> sent: > > It might be easy for you

[Elecraft] Always accept line in

I'd like to use the voice keyer in MacLoggerDX, but since I have to switch input from line in to rear mic do this, its a bit tedious. Of course when the voice keyer becomes available, I wont have problem, but until then, any suggestions for making this easier. -- Natural ability without education

[Elecraft] [K3] Noise Reduction Recording

I'm still having trouble determining if what I hear is noise that NB should get rid of. This is because I'm a relatively new Ham without the experience to know what I'm hearing. So I have made a recording on the noise and it is available from

Re: [Elecraft] K1, K2, K3 dust cover design question

I'm very happy with my covers as you made them thanks. I have to say the K3 cover isn't on the K3 much, but that's because I'm using the K3 so much :) The HexTent is just great and has drawn a comment from every visitor (this is because the cover is always on the Key, I'm sure the K3 cover would d
