Topband: Sept 12 JT65 on 1838khz...nice opening to Eu.

I have to disagree with some of what has been said about how much power to run using JT65. JT65 is a LOW SIGNAL mode, NOT a LOW POWER mode. We run 1500 watts into 20+ dB gain antennas on 2 meters for EME. Signals coming back from the moon vary between –10 and –29 dB Why limit yourself on

I've used 100 watts on 160 - by accident, as I forgot to turn down the drive - I discovered that decoding can be a real problem at high power levels. I've seen signals from a station 30 miles (50 km) away that wouldn't decode because of spreading. I believe the main goal is to have little or

Hello so how much power to use in JT65 on 160 mts for DX ? 15-25 watts in OK on high bands, but how much pwr people are using on 160 mts? thanks, Jorge 2015-09-12 14:51 GMT-03:00 Jim Brown : > On Sat,9/12/2015 7:33 AM, Mike Waters wrote: > >> How much of this was

Thanks, Jim. Maybe I'll stick with WSPR, at least for awhile. Per the Sept. 10 thread about VK2KRR, there seems to be some 160m activity on that mode. I've enjoyed WSPR in the past, but the Linux version of the software I was using at the time would crash at odd intervals. Hopefully, downloading

I have had many across the pond WSPR reports over the years. I'll have to give JT65 a try as well. Mike va3mw On Sat, Sep 12, 2015 at 9:10 PM, Mike Waters wrote: > Thanks, Jim. Maybe I'll stick with WSPR, at least for awhile. Per the Sept. > 10 thread about VK2KRR, there
