Does anybody know if what was the Pixel Technologies BevPro-1 Beverage Antenna
System,
which I understand is now the InLogisInc BevFlex-4 Beverage antenna, is still
in production?
I can't see any reference to it on the InLogisInc.com web site
I've emailed InLogisInc but haven't received a
With all due respect, Mike, these things are within your control and the
DXpedition should not be held responsible for you not being able to work
them. You'll find DXing way more fun when you upgrade (although K1N DID look
for Generals on some bands). With regards to 60m, many operators there

You could upgrade to Extra.

Hi Larry,
We now live in an entitlement minded society. All are suppose to have
equal access to everything, regardless of personal preparation. Just
because you have an extra class license, bigger antennas, and more

Mike, no one is jumping all over you. As has already been pointed out by
someone else, one thing that is in your control is your license class. This
expedition was announced several months ago, not two days before it
started. If you choose not to upgrade you will come away from future
expeditions
On the 13th they were on 3725 and were switching between listening up 10-15
and 3815+/- around 1100Z but you had to listen carefully to know which of
those they were doing. They would take some 10-15 up and then take some
around 3815 and then repeat the sequence.

Extra Class
I am sure that my wife could get her General and Extra class license by
studying for one weekend or less, if she wanted to.
When I got my Extra in 1968. There were no privileges. The test was send and
receive code at 20WPM and the written test had many diagrams to draw.

Pixel Technologies, now known as InLogisticInc, has exited the amateur radio
antenna business. The creator of the BevFlex-4 is Geoff W8GNM. Geoff and his
partner Ned WC4X, are currently seeking an alternate distribution channel
for the BevFlex-4 antenna system. It is a really great

This is speculation and depends entirely on who is in charge at the

As I recall, I drove to Tucson (120 miles one way) and took the 20 WPM Extra
Class test on a Saturday in 1991. A month later (spent studying for the written
test) I went back to the same place to take the written test. Fortunately, I
passed both. The 20 WPM test was, of course, more difficult
Interesting how things can jog a memory... My dad wanted me to be the
youngest ham back in 1957 and he pushed me to learn all the required
circuits which I might have been able to do all considering how
quickly young kids absorb information. The spoiler for me was the
code more than the

Here are some things that will hopefully be in the DX'ING FOR DUMMIES BOOK
1. K1N is over. I am not convinced that any group anywhere did it better.
that applies to all bands more specifically 160 meters.
2. NEWS FLASH!
im sure i could of too ...
i heard them for hours on 80M (3705 +70Khz) some times even 20 over
S9 but never ventured above 3800 cept once some one got them to go
to 60M ... and of corse i didn't have an antenna resonant for 60M .

I worked them on 160 in just a few calls with my 80m INV V and 500 watts
on CW. Timing and luck are everything. It was super early just after
our sunset. Yes I was shocked.
For being the #1 needed country they were very easy to work for the USA.
