As others have said, 6m is very seasonal - it is far better in the summer than winter. Even during the summer, it is very volatile - it can swing from completely closed to wide open and back to closed

Hi Larry, Welcome to The Magic Band. Sometimes it's magic that one gets a contact, any contact, however the times it "opens" are truly Magic. It has the LOS features other VHF+ frequencies

Oh yes Larry! We have a 25W ERP and horizontal polarisation here in DL on 6m, so 'often' I only use my FT-817, first generation made 2000, for that prupose. Most of the time its my only radio, i used,

HI I have occasionally been using my FT817 on 6m FT8, experimenting with home-brew Slim Jim or Moxon constructed with the aid of plastic drain pipe or ducting. Best I managed was down to Greece. 6m

Hi Larry, I'm not a big user of 6m but back in June 2013 I was on holiday in a cottage in Suffolk, England. I'd taken my FT-817, Z817 tuner and some wire antennas, vertical and four radials, which I

Where to start… 6m is sporadic when it’s good it’s GOOD much of the time you would need to use low power digital modes to make contacts with. Summer is probably going to be very good - may on

I’ve been a ham “forever”, but I’ve never done anything on 6 meters. My FT-817 is the only radio I have with 6M capability, so I’m eyeing it as a way to try out 6M. For the past few weeks

G’day Ulf, You mention that you’re running from a lead acid battery, is there a charger connected to it and running? Steve VK2ARS Sent: Tuesday, January 24, 2023 12:26 AM To: [email protected]

Ulf, CW is generated by unbalancing a double-balanced mixer. Presumably the hum is FM, rather than AM—are you able to check with an oscilloscope or similar (an auxiliary SDR, for instance?) Two

Thanks for your reply Al. I don't think the problem is audio related because it's present in the in transmitted CW carrier. As far as I know the TX CW is not audio generated in the 817. I will try an

Thanks Dave! I'm trying to connect ISS with a software modem (as I do with all digital mode, packet included) and my cable works on audio rear input. What does "packet cable" mean? This is the info

Well Pietro . Do u have the 817 packet cable? I have one that I will never use. I don't have a use for it. Would rather not advertise here.You can e-mail direct at dwtucker19@... if you need

The audio circuits are sensitive to fields near the radio.? Do you have any transformer operated devices near the radio.? Is there line voltage cables running next to the radio, etc.?? Does the hum

Hello I'm new to this group so excuse me if this topic have been up to discussion earler. I have a strong hum in my 817 TX and RX. It's very noticable on the transmitted CW carrier and it sounds like

Dear Dave, also I worked iss in FM and signal is very strong. I worked others satellites, too, with 5 W. I never had more then 10 W in my life (since 1974...) And I'm sure that power is never a

Yes if you look on the AMSAT or the ISS amateur radio page it will have a schedule of what is active and when John Earnshaw M0JFE aka Beanpole or 26TM915 Tel:- 07940815659 “Ride the waves and make

Well Pietro I never connected to packet but I have worked the ISS on low power 5 watts worked great. I also used the LOS sat's cross band 2/440 before. Could not believe I work the sat's on 5 watts.

Has anyone had experience with packet QSOs on the ISS? I work on the ISS in FM but I can't connect in packet mode. I use UISS software with UZ7HO soundmodem. I solved the PTT problem, but I decrypt
