I have noticed since getting the R8 back, the S Meter is more sensitive
to minor changes. I normally get local KSWB 840 at 9 miles at S9+38 days
(1KW) and S9+35 nights (500w). But at times depending on conditions, the
signal can drop or go up a bit. I have noticed anywhere from S9+32-35
(500w) to S

Does anyone have a good recommendation on wireless headphones for DXing (brand
and model)? I have a Drake R8 I'd like to use them with. The current (wired)
headphones that fit the R8 use a 1/4" phone plug. Thanks in advance. 73.

I see KKSN got their CP to change from DA2 5/5 to DA2 3.4/4.3. Early on
when they applied there was some question on their new pattern. Are they
moving to the 1080 site or building a new site? What will the new
pattern be? They have always had a super signal out here on the NW Coast

I have Brooks 1340 heard & QSL'd, but I haven't caught Stettler 1400 as
yet. I wonder how many of the far Eastern BC GYers are still on? There

The conditions are different this year. There are times when longer hops
are there, but they don't last. Unfortunately DXing from the same QTH
for as many years as I have, most of the DX on short hops,I have heard.
There are a few ones I have not heard, but not too many. I should sit
