Re: Two pelts
Kip, take a look at the SGC Smartuner Yahoo Group. I just joined yesterday and was able to build the loop from specs provided by one of the group members. It needs to be tweaked because my SG239

Re: Two pelts
I'd sure be interested in hearing more about the loop, Lou. Did you build as a magnetic loop? (Hints, please. Antenna's are what breaks my heart, here.) I was able to work W8RU but only because Ron

Re: Two pelts
Well, I got one. Been a while since I even heard the foxii. Used a new antenna this evening. A 13-turn loop (6' X 4') tuned by an SG-239 the whole thing laying against the bedroom wall about 10' off

Two pelts
I must be living right because I managed to bag both Foxii tonight. They both have good, but not great, signals into Georgia. From the number of unanswered CQs that I'm hearing them make, I assume not

Fox: Heard only one in WNY...
Hounds, I heard W0NTA at the start of the hunt and he was about s5 here in WNY but faded away and I don't hear either now. Once in a while I hear a hound calling... 73, Tom kv2x

Best of luck to you as well, Fred. (And if conditions on 40 meters where you are sound like they do in southern California, tonight - we're all going to need a lot of it!!) Happy New Years, one and

Re: band condx
I could hear W0EB at first then he disappeared. I guess he moved up because of QRM. I never really heard N9AW until just after 0300, and he was 599+ here in London, OH (25mi west of Cols). I almost

Two pelts for Christmas
Both W0EB and N9AW are about equal in strength here in Georgia tonight, but there's a bit of QSB on Jerry's signal. After trying for about 15 minutes to work N9AW, I gave up and tuned for W0EB. I

This does not look good for Ohio again, Band is bad tonight and I don't think it will be any different for tomorrow. I was just looking around the foxii frequency and not much there. Heard a CO8
