No, Cliff is not crazy when he says go to OSH. The old "OSH" which was Orchard Supply Hardware did go out of business ?years ago, but there is a new chain called "OSH" for Outdoor Supply Hardware. We

I recall some comercial antenna painted a light grey blue.

I'm not saying it's not possible to blow the finals. I'm just looking for the side-by-side test or measurements compared to specs on the same radio with and without zener, and am surprised that I am

Hiroki did it twice.

Connie,? when you blow your finals. (Not if, but when), I have plenty of replacement transistors,? which are not trivial to remove.? Lol. Doug

Is there a side-by-side test documented anywhere? Ie, showing that the radio is destroyed without the zener diode under the same conditions otherwise? I couldn't find one. They're cheap -- you'd think

I drove home from Chester yesterday, and am pretty tired.? I hope to see you all next week. 73, Eric NF6S ex WD6DBM ?

Thank you Hiroki for your validation.? ?I heartedly encourage everyone who has usdx radios,? including the one from Ed Fong to do this simple mod.

Joy, about painting; Any kind of enamel will work to protect the fiberglass rods from UV. Go to OSH and get a big can of their brand spray black enamel. Gloss or flat, your choice; heck you can use

I use the makers rotor controllers.? One less cable, plus computer to configure. Besides, the computer logger can't guess what station you are trying to work until you are ready to log the QSO.? On

Do you just use the controller that comes with the rotor to exclusivity rotate your antenna, or do you add a third party box that allows you to have the computer control your rotor with your logging

I plan to be there for lunch but I will have to leave afterwards. Joy

If you are having problems with the bands, so are the hams on Mars. It appears that even ET8 has been affected. Here is probably the reason. Epic solar storm effects seen by Mars rovers

I plan to be at the Baylands starting with lunch. Hope to see many of you. Hiroki AH6CY

I wouldn't discourage you from adding it. If it shorts, it's easier to replace than a FET, cheaper too. --Jeff [email protected]> wrote:

I've been in chester the past several weeks, and the blustery winds kept me from putting up antennas.? The road thru lassen is not yet plowed, so no hf or vhf ops for me.?? As Cliff mentioned,
