Well said, Jim! Sounds like that "syndrome" you mention might be related to *Topband Disease* ;-) The link to that is now 404, but I have it copied to http://www.w0btu.com/160_meters.html near the bottom.
I only completed the best 160m station that I have ever had (by completing a legal limit 160m amp) just two weeks before the lightning QRN season took hold this spring. I had a lot of fun with 1500w feeding my inverted-L and listening on Beverages here for a short time. Can you say, "chomping at the bit"? ;-) 73 Mike On Sat, Jul 27, 2013 at 12:35 PM, Jim GM <jim.gmfo...@gmail.com> wrote: > Sounds to me you were on track before your post.
