Preliminary look says somewhere around N7UA or Camano Island. I cannot remember the ham on Camano Is call. Anybody know either to have them check signal strength?

The AM broadcaster on 1680 kHz nulls a few degrees further south. This is using a tuned medium wave loop antenna, so it doesn't resonate on 160m, and local noise tends to queer things in a more north-south direction, but it seems to be a reasonable direction finder otherwise. A west facing Flag with adjustable termination can null the signal also, so I don't think it is at 130+180 = 310 degrees. best wishes, Nick VE7DXR At 17:18 23-03-14, you wrote: >The carrier on 1810.8 is still s9 plus 40db here (at 10:15 am), so I >guess he/it is local! > >Jim >W1YY/7 >Kingston, WA > >-----Original Message----- From: Lee K7TJR >Sent: Sunday, March 23, 2014 7:20 AM >To: topband@contesting.com >Subject: Topband: another carrier > >The 1810.8 carrier is S5 here in the a.m. and is slightly West of North >of my QTH in central OR. > >Lee K7TJR > >_________________ >Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband >_________________ >Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband
