    Let's see where this goes, and if it eventually "involves" any other members!...Who's worked ME (45 in Florida) in DX??

    Me and my zip tied up station go by "45" here in Tallahassee Florida on the 11m band, and I'm curious on any members that have talked to me during a DX blast?! Just seeing where this goes, and maybe some other members can connect and confirm other contacts for themselves with others in this...

    Using another radio as a monitor...BUT...

    So this is probably simpler than I think, but it has always had me stumped. My Yaesu FTDX-10 is the transmitter in this situation, hooked to a dummy load...my Icom 7300 is the receiver/monitor, as I'm setting the eq in the Yaesu. Even with the Yaesu turned all the way down to 5 watts, and only...

    Maco V-58 Height vs Performance

    So in another thread I asked opinions on my Sirio 4 element yagi being up 50' vs back down to 1 W/L high, now I'm curious on any opinions or real world findings on an omni, such as my Maco V-58 in the same scenario? Currently my V-58 is 60' up on my tower (60' to the base of the Maco) and some...

    Replacing RM Italy KL-203P blown transistors with IRF 520's?

    Just wondering roughly what kind of output I should expect out of these in this amp? I'm not worried about a small power decrease if that's what I end up with. It's just a "helper" in my side by side anyways. I know, most will say I'm wasting my time on a pc of junk. It was free and I have a...

    Maco V5/8 (or any other vertical) above a 4 element yagi

    So any opinions or comments on this type of setup? Mine is this way (pic below), of course with the radials off of the Maco, and I do get good results, but however, to me in theory, it seems as if one would be somewhat sharing/stealing the power of the other one in TX, and possibly even in RX...

    Interesting Antenna Height Question...

    Hello, I'm a new member and this is my first post. My question/need of opinion is as follows: I have a 4 element Sirio mounted at 50'. Would I benefit any lowering it down to 36ish feet to get it to the height or 1 wavelength, or just leave it at 50' and let it ride there? It would be easy...
