Re: Hiroki's article in QRP ARCI magazine

 

Even though my husband says he has no interest in becoming a ham, he always takes my QRP and QST magazines from the mail before I have a chance to even find out they have arrived.?
?
He said "Hey look Hiroki has a new article!".
I haven't had a chance to read it yet. Maybe I should get him his own subscription....his birthday is coming up.

Congrats Hiroki,

Something is in the air...

 

Hey folks, I think propagation is likely pretty good right now.

On the ship today, 10MHz and 15MHz were booming.? In the car, lots of FM BC DX, from Sac and north valley, KCHO.? Car on 680 S in San Remote.

Right now I don't have a chance to operate, I hope someone does.

?Doug,

What are the values for the coils? Are you using toroids or air wound coils? I want to replicate your filter.

Re: Friday Lunch and Ops

 

Good and bad news re. ops yesterday... the good: absolute beautiful WX, hung out with two Daves and Barry, worked several POTA stations in WA and MS, got great reports. Used the Alpha mag loop and my new/old Icom 703 (thanks Dave C., working FB!).?
The bad: functioning on three hours of sleep last night, got so enthused about operating I failed to note the revised closing time... as the sun was setting and I was packing out, Alex, one of the wind surfers, told me he had locked his keys and phone in his vehicle and asked if I could help (he had a smart watch but somehow it was incapable of either surfing the 'net or placing a call). Took some time to Google and phone a mobile lockout service and took off, only to find the road blocked by a locked gate (I was the third of three waiting). Had to wait about 30 minutes for the PAPD. The lockout service guy arrived but couldn't get past the gate either, so he had to park and walk to the ops site to assist Alex.?
Lesson: get enough sleep and pay attention to the signs--they mean what they say!

Re: Band Pass Filters

 

I will bring it to Pacificon and give it to her to try.? I think it will help.? I listened today.? ?Tuned to 40 meter Ft8 frequency,? loud stations.? Inserted filter, nothing heard.? Took it out, found a loud? ssb signal, Inserted filter.? Signal gone, nothing.? ?Same result on 30 and 17 meters.? Then, with the filter in, tuned 20 meter band.? Lots of signals.? I? think my tests are valid, and verify that the filter works.? The true test will been when Joy tries it at Baylands.?


Re: Band Pass Filters

 

I think it looks ok! Can see the insertion loss, a few dB. A little ripple, so 3 element circuit? Not too steep, so I wonder if it would help for Joy's use, which I think was filter other signals in band? But I'm no expert.
