I wonder if anyone knows how to reach W5UN? He made a post concerning his
problems with WD1A breaking inside the insulation and was wanting to find out
if he thought it was a corrosion or tension problem. I tried the email he used
to make the post several times but no response. Has anyone else
Does anyone have a reference to the technological basis for the alleged
superiority of the "moebius loop" over other amplified, broadband
"shielded" loops? In other words, what makes this antenna any better
than a shielded loop (even a multi turn loop within a shield) where the
barrow band "cou
I'm considering the purchase of the Pixel Shielded Active Broadband Magnetic
"Moebius Loop" Antenna. I intend to put it on the roof of my stilt home
with a small rotor. It will be fed into the 2nd antenna input of my K3. My
other 160 antenna is a 70 ft shunt fed tower, which works very well. An
Does anyone have QSL info for C31YA? Interestingly enough, his info on QRZ.COM
says "No QSL." I know the practice has been to avoid posting QSL info
requests on the reflector, but I find no QSL info from the usual sources.

All-
This topic is obviously a hot button for many.. however, I believe we have
pretty much hashed this out. I will start being very selective in what

Thanks for your understanding.

No, a delay won't work, these are interactive SDr's not web sdr's, a
delay would make tuning nearly impossible, why impose this on

Well, lets not split hairs
The station in question was from a sought after DXCC entity (on 160m SSB
anyway) and was working a p

example:
Stations operating two Rigs on the same band, one Running and the other
working Mults. Doing this is a distinct advantage over a single transmitter
station that is forced to compete against two ops with two rigs.
This SDR thing is getting boring. Why not do away with SDRs and go back
to radios? Bob W7LR

Theoretically a well equipped QRO mobile could win a 10M contest just by
having dead band access to almost every state for multipliers and likely
good access to the Carribean, etc.
Granted its a stretch and not about 160M but contesters have always been
creative. A prime example is the earliest
Nope. The rule says *all* transmitters, receivers, and antennas must be in the
*same* 500m circle. I guess the circle moves around with mobile stations, but I
don't think anyone is worried about those guys.

Thats a great use Herb ..
FWIW - I am not a contester or an awards collector but I am a serious dx'er.
Technology concerns aside for how the various new things can be abused, I
really think the single issue affecting ham radio is poor behaviors. Whether

Hello All, If I understand correctly in the US , as far as DXCC, it is

Hi Dave,
I'm not asking you (as a group I am taking the your usage of "us" to mean) to
believe anything. My personal opinion is that ethics, integrity and honor are
individual rather than absolute values. I have no idea what the current DXCC or
any other award/contest rules are but if they are v
