Greetings all,

I need a PSK31 QSO & QSL from Alaska to finish up my PSK31 WAS.

Any hints, info, leads, SCHEDULES, etc. will be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks es vy 73,

Chas, K8IJ
Chas-

You might try KL7AC. I worked him with my lame, QRP out of the attic
station. His QSL notes his e-mail as KL7AC@arrl.net. Perhaps you could set
a schedule with him.

Cool lookin' card, too.

I know, I have heard (or should I say seen) you calling CQ Alaska
for days :-) Wish I could help but Southern Maryland doesn't
qualify :-)

Don't think so , I have seen translations from that, but the computer will
choose most of the times the wrong meaning of the word if there is more
than one. And especially with our ham vocabulary it will be quite a word
salad.

Hey Everybody,

Is there anyone in the club who could translate some things from English

Hi, I have an NVIS dipole (at 6 m over ground plane),

The link to it is good, I just checked it out.

The article is on this website:

It's titled "80 Meter Wire Antenna" the first one on the list. You might
try going to the website to get it.

Re: 80m Autumn Sprint - Attic Antenna!!

Dick Thompson <wb0dul@...>
 

Peter,

Hamsticks work great. I live in a gated community (retirement mobile home park) in Colorado Springs. I have permission to put up an antenna as long as it isn't too "obnoxious." So, to keep peace I went to a Hustler 4BTV Vertical mounted on the ground. (A neighbor, K0UIV, heard that I was going to put up an antenna, so he put a Hustler 6BTV on his roof, with tuned radial, and hasn't had any complaints from management or neighors). It works fine. But, before I put up the 4BTV I used Hamsticks and still do for 12, 17 & 75 meters. I took a piece of aluminum and attached it to the supports for an aluminum cover over my rear porch/redwood deck. Then I attached a mirror mount and a male quick disconnect on it. At the base of the Hamsticks I used the female quick disconnect. It's easy to change, although standing on a redwood chair to reach up and change bands is/was a pain, it works. There are times I can hear better with the Hamsticks than with the 4BTV. I've never used the Hamsticks in a rotatable dipole configuration, but I've talked to guys/gals that have and they seem to think they work quite well and are "somewhat" directional. Since I have permission from the Management here I will probably try one this Fall or Winter. My neighbors haven't complained (although I had one neighbor a block away that said I was getting into her computer speakers and telephone). A couiple of toroids solved the computer speaker problem and the phone lines were the phone company problem, as she said she was hearing the interference when I wasn't even transmitting. That was an easy solution.

Give the Hamsticks a try. Either configuration (dipole or vertical) may work well. They are a great little antenna. I have several different makes of the, but call the Hamsticks. Kinda like Kleenex. It doesn't make any difference who makes it, it's still Kleenex. :)

Good luck and I hope the "Reasonable accomodation" legislation in the House at present, gets passed and you will be allowed to install a better antenna system.

73,

Dick
WB0DUL@arrl.net

If you'd like a picture of how I have the Hamstick mounted on my porch cover, provide me with an e-mail address and I'll be most happy to send them to you. You can e-mail me directly at the address below my name.

Steve-

I have the same issue that you have. Iron-clad CCR and a big attic. I have
not yet operated much below 20m. 20m and above, my antennas work quite well
(I even have a rotatable 3-el beam for 6m)

I have been meaning to try Hamstick dipoles for 30 & 40 meters. Of course,
one can do the same for 80m. While I am sure Hamstick dipoles would be
rather inefficient, such a setup might get guys like us presence on the
band, and might even be a step above a dummy load.

Just a thought...

Re: 80m Autumn Sprint - Attic Antenna!!

Steve;
Check my web site, http://www.oldcyberdude.com on
the ham pages for my 80 meter vertical!!!! It doesn't
fit in an attic exactly but ......I put the tophat on
the attic floor and drop a single inconspicuous wire
from the soffitt to the ground outside my shack. A
few "midnight" efforts to slice in 4 radials into the
turf and I had an 80 meter vertical. I make no claims
on efficiency but it loads over most of the band
without a tuner (of course resistors do to). Using a
tuner I get a 40 meter radiator that I use as an
alternate to the attic "slinky".

Hey Jay,

You're right, 5 watts out is qrp, no matter how it's manufactured.

If we could get everybody to use one of these dummy whips of yours maybe,
I could win something.

The 160 Sprint will be coming up towards the end of the year.

Hey Steve & Ernie,
How about a dummy load with an 8' whip sticking out of it? That oughta
fit
in an attic. Might even put a few mW out on the air (with a kW in). Hey
Bernie, would that be considered QRP? Less than 5 watts out into the air
from the system.
Other than that, an 80 meter sprint sounds like a good time to check out
some
of these wires hangin around here. When's the 160 meter sprint?
