The 10-10 newsletter is quarterly, they have a print version and also now a digital version. The reason for two versions is the print can only be 32 pages and 2-color. With the digital version I can do what I want color-wise and pages as well. Sometimes the digital is only same number of pages...

Thanks to all for the quick responses. To begin with, the more I think about the cage dipole the more I'm thinking of removing it from the list. There's no way I see this as being very portable and it would likely wind up in a heap after being packed away. As for the fan dipole NTM suggests I...

If you had to carry an antenna around for possible emergency use which would it be? I am writing a little ebook about the 6 choices that I might consider: Multi-Band dipole Cage dipole Single-band-dipoles Off-center fed dipole Vertical dipoles Delta loops Of course the antenna would...

Might be they are going for the .64 wavelength instead of 5/8. I read about the .64 wavelength for 10 meters being a better size for that band instead of the 5/8. Maybe that's what HG is doing with yours?

Thanks, looks like a good place to roost. Spend a lot of time on the net as I work at home so will try to be active here. Hope your talk was productive, I am the editor of the 10-10 Newsletter and I figure Todd is going to implode when he sees his suspension in the newsletter. But, it was...

That sounds like an invite for comments? Okay, care to comment about your recent (and TOTAL) suspension from ALL of your FORMER 10-10 volunteer positions (including Net Control)? Guess the 10-10 BOD had enough of your independent behavior huh? Guess the last time you dissed a new ham was...

I do a great deal of digital work and this software does a good job of maintaining the time: Thinking Man Software - Dimension 4 v5.3 (Freeware)

This is only a 4 element antenna but some of the hardware/cabling looks similar to the HF beam. The site doesn't give an overall picture so hard to tell. Not sure if it's a Hy-Gain judging by what I can see of the coax to antenna connection. Could be a homebrew? I recently purchased some...

To start with, the 718 is limited to 40W on AM (http://www.icomamerica.com/en/products/amateur/hf/718/IC718_QSTReview.pdf) so if he is looking for 100 watts I don't see it happening. Since it's a used rig you might suggest he take/send it to some one good with radios to make sure the...

Congrats on the Tech and General. Two meter simplex works here for me for ragchewing, also will do some ragchewing on CW but not sure if you use it. So welcome to the hobby. And hey, don't get drawn into the "code / no code" ham stuff.:bdh: You have a license and the skills to use the...
