    MFJ 828 ISSUES

    Against the advice of several members of this excellent form, I went ahead and purchased at 828 from mfg. I purchased it because it has the frequency counter and the cross needle SWR/ power / reflected. Digital and analog . The frequency counter would have come in handy had I gotten around to...

    can the A99 ever be a good antenna?

    What's going on bearcat? Believe it or not, even when not setup correctly the a 99, at least for me worked incredibly.12 feet off the ground, and 40 mile ground wave trips with no problem and contacts all over the world when conditions were correct. My SWR was higher than I would have liked it...

    Big strapper...big hammer

    Don't do much. AM dx'ing but when I do I stay off 6 all together. Mostly over modulated over driven and ten stations keying at once. 28's not bad at all. Sonar 2340, demco modulator, Palomar 300a imax 2000 and a stock d104 usually does the job. The bowl's a joke IMO.

    can the A99 ever be a good antenna?

    I spoke to ten's of stations from my QTH in New Jersey with My A 99 9 feet off the ground. Two watts from New Jersey to San Juan Puerto Rico, south Africa, Curacao and so many others, loud and proud. Conditions conditions conditions.

    can the A99 ever be a good antenna?

    It's not the antenna that makes one loud. Antennas don't talk transmitters / Transceivers do. The A 99 is an excellent antenna. Price wise and band coverage can't be bought at that price, and work as well as they do.

    11 METER SSB SUGAR OSCAR/TANGO. DELTA excetera excetera?

    27.555 USB is the frequency I find myself on most. The only reason I find myself visiting 38 LSB, is to say good afternoon to the many station I've become acquainted with. I've only been on the air for about 10 months now, and I'm assuming like everyone else 38 LSB, is the place where everyone...

    11 METER SSB SUGAR OSCAR/TANGO. DELTA excetera excetera?

    When shooting skip, which is what I used my station for 95% of the time, I can't help but notice all these, what I'm assuming to be club prefixes before stations use their digit call sign..i myself just using my 3 digit call sign. Are these clubs that can be joined in order to get that prefix? I...

    Todays DX from the UK (England)

    270 miles. Very impressive my friend. I was curious about your exact working conditions. I have heard of ground wave trips being long distance, but I actually didn't think that type of distance was even possible. I know when it comes to radio communications conditions would most likely have to...

    SERIOUS PIECE OF TEST EQUIPMENT

    If you're not happy with your technician, maybe it's time for a new one. Mike is not a magician. He is a technician and can only do what can be done to any particular radio. If you want to mess with your audio section, clipping or bypassing the limiter, you should stick with your tech. Mike...

    ANYONE HEARD THE JAMMER ON 38LSB

    If everyone subscribe to your policy these losers wouldn't even exist. They thrive off attention and without it would just melt away. Don't cry just QSY! It amazes me why everyone, or many people insist on operating 38 LSB. With so many other great frequencies on 11 meters, SSB Dxing shouldn't...

    USA/North America booming into UK/EU

    No insult intended, but why anyone would want to listen to the large majority of operators that work the Super Bowl is beyond me. The sloppiest sounding splatter boxes over modulated overdriven stations seem to congregate on what is known as the Super Bowl. In my opinion there's nothing super...

    UK SSB?

    When skips rolling in, to 27.555 USB, is the place to be. It's very rare that I'll call CQ anymore. I'll just listen to a station I would like to contact and wherever they QSY that's where I'll go. The only reason to operate on 38 LSB is too say hello to some old friends that don't normally make...

    smooth audio?

    I'm not sure what 55 in Texas is running, but on Channel 38 LSB hands down some of the nicest audio I've heard in sometime. I'm in New Jersey by the way.

    Rm Italy KL-503 watts vs amps

    The things I learn from you people on WWDX is incredible. That is absolutely the best description of how to figure out the output af an amp. Thanks CaptainTE="Captain Kilowatt, post: 486519, member: 39"]Typical RM rating IOW bullshit rating. They typically rate something at nearly twice what it...

    Stoner Pro 40

    I think most of you know by now I am NOT an ssb person. Even so who wouldn't love to own a stoner pro 40. After two nights of debating I've decided I'm not a person who should own one. I'm sure there are some of you who know there's one up for auction on eBay. From the biding activitie maybe not...

    after receiving my Uniden Madison. I was totally surprised that the new mint condition this rig is in. I'm not a purist but after seeing how really nice this Madison is I've decided to leave it in the original untouched condition that it's in. this Madison made me realize that I am NOT a single...
