Re: WPX Contacts...
I too had similar experiences.... not as many contacts because I didn't spend as much time... using a G5RV up about 50 feet.... contacts were always exciting.... been using qrp over the past 30 years

Re: Best filter for PSK
please note, that with the optional CW- Filter installed and using
PSK31-U with NAR filter on, you are most likely NOT TRANSCEIVE !
I mean, that bandpass is offset by about -200Hz, when switching NAR

Re: An MP-1 that is very hot
I think this is a good starting point. After trying with radials of
different lengths, I tried the MP-1 with the steel tape measure
counterpoise I used with the ATX. I managed to get good SWR on all

Re: At least one MP-1 which is not so hot.
Gene,
dont forget this points:
1. The PM-1 will result in a 2-3 S-Units lower signal compared to a dipol in
good shape. If you produce a "just above noise" signal with a dipol, you
will not be heard

Re: At least one MP-1 which is not so hot.
Gene -- an MP-1 has its place, but as you learned, it has its limitations!
Maybe if it had been 20 feet off the ground, the results would've been
better.
It would really be fun to have an antenna

Re: An MP-1 that is very hot
Hi Bonnie,
Yes, I find the B&W AP-10A works somewhat better than the MP-1. The
B&W antenna is more efficient than the MP-1 (Q of B&W coil (length to
diameter ratio = 2) is higher than for the
