Re: Activity in Idaho or Hawaii on PSK
The G station is no longer in HI… I believe he is now in GA or somewhere in the SE of the country – I worked him in both places… Just cannot remember exactly the SE US state he is in, or was in.

Re: Activity in Idaho or Hawaii on PSK
From Oct 14 to Oct. 15 I worked these stations in ID:
WB7RXY ... KG7LQA ... KG7DRN ... AB7Bn
As for HI I worked a couple in 2009, but I have seen many other HI stations in the past few years...

Activity in Idaho or Hawaii on PSK
Is there any activity on PSK in either Idaho or Hawaii? I have 48 states confirmed on PSK, but I have never heard any activity from either of those States. Has anyone worked anyone there on PSK?

I got my HI PSK31 contacts with KH6BB Battleship Missouri Amateur Radio Club operating from the Battleship Missouri BB63. Check their web site for possible operating activities and schedule.

Re: Any antenna gurus here?
Had a 4BTV for about 19 years and it played well. Sold it off because I was moving; a freind of mine bought it and used it for several years until base rusted out. It was a decent antenna.
Still have

On the subject of mountains, i.e. rocks and dirt. Mountains do not alter or reflect RF. The water table does as do snow capped mountains. As will heavy amounts of copper, or iron ore. Your G5RV

Not trying to insult anyone. Also not believing any one antenna fits every situation. Also let's call a coil an inductor, when it is paired with a capacitor it can become a filter or trap . When

Re: Any antenna gurus here?
Just to add ... traps have "insertion loss" and can be a bit of a problem when the weather or if you run high power with a high SWR. Had a local ham who had a tribander. and ran too much power

Re: Any antenna gurus here?
Antennas may different due to location, that's a no-brainer. However they will vary from day to day, hour to hour, etc. depending on propagation to a specific area.
My own antenna will work great

The DX-EE is a much better antenna than a G5RV. I think the DX-EE can be installed in an inverted V configuration which will give somewhat of a vertical radiation pattern . Ted is absolutely
