DO YOU UPLOAD YOUR CONTEST LOGS? Dec 14, 2009 09:49 AM

Hey Bob ( w1ig ). I completed survey. Very interesting. If I may ask, what system do you have set up for QRP. I'm redoing my station and ants. I have Yeasu FT 950 new and TT jupiter. I will be running FSK with software. Also TT 3 watt rx/tx rig just putting together. I'm on 20/40m mostly at the lower CW end. Ants-TH7DXX Hygain triband. 3 element 40m beam Hygain. Various wire on 1.6 ac's. 2nd tower has 40m beam, but is feed with a Gamma match. Has 80+ radials. Also going to put Inverted L off the backside of 2nd tower. My next Ant will be a homebrew 4 Square for all bands but esp 40/80. The phase direction box may give me a tumble. But I'll try. I'm going to sell or trade Jupiter/40m bm. I worked QRP for a long time esp when in Europe and Asia. Same reason for attic. I wound up using a small Magnetic Loop. I was really surprised at how well it work. I may of had $25 in it. It was 4ft hd 4ft wid. Used pvc pipe for frame. Very easy to tune as butterfly cap at top apec. Also very gud for RX as you could null out noise. Then transmitt on vertical or dipole. Was an Internet google ant. I had better go as I tend to ramble. I love HAM RADIO. 73. Roger, W4IV, Murfreesboro, Tn. W4IV roger hughes

Why not an Eqsl contest? Dec 13, 2009 01:48 PM

Return Ham to eQSL Name Roger. How about 1 week in fall. Work each day for total. I like the scoring. Sounds fair. Any OP classes Low (QRP) or high power. CW,SSB or digital. I work mostly CW or digital. During the week day to stay away from the big contests. If publized rite, I think many many people would do it. It's not complicated, plenty of time. Maybe Boy Scout meeting at nite. Win-EQF sets up new contests. 1st annual eQSL contest. eQSL is much cheaper and faster by email. Then download your paper cpy of your contact. You can't beat that. Eqsl was here many many years before LogW. Check it out ( www.eQSL.cc ) Come join us in free membership and be a part of this process with Hams all over the world. I can't spell very gud for some reason. Anyway something like that. I believe you would promise a card. Pick-up at the web site. That's to get the people in to get their card and maybe come back later. After all this is a Mac Daddy web site. Running very well. I am back to DXing. Had Heart transplant almost 14 yrs ago. Last 2 yrs things are a changing. My rejection meds are turning against me and stay sick alot. No amunity to fight off sickness. I think I may be cremated with 2 of my rigs on chest and holding them. My wife went nuts. I'll quit rambling for no reason. My thoughts only on contest. 73, Roger, W4IV SE of Music City, Tn. W4IV roger hughes |
