Raising the "F" layer?
Perhaps if we could clone enough of those 5 kw indestructable amps,
we could heat the atmosphere before the contest to get the MUF at

Re: PSK DX
I've had really good luck using a florescent tube, they are more broad
banded, and when you transmit, they help light your shack.

Re: PSK DX
Jay -
Thanks for the suggestion. Does it matter what wattage the bulb is?
If I use a 40 watt bulb, I should get 7 dB gain, right? (My two radios
put out a total of 8 watts. 40 / 8 = 5, which is 7

Re: PSK DX
Steve, makes no difference how you hook them up, just terminate in a large
light bulb, preferably a burnt-out one. Jay, KA3X

Re: PSK DX
Steve,
You've got to use a splitter.
You put the splitter on the antenna connector of your PSK-20. Connect the
Anetnna connector from your FT-817 to one side of the splitter and the other
side

Re: PSK DX

When you hook up amps in series, do they add like resistors (1 + 1 +
1 = 3) or capacitors (1 + 1 + 1 "=" 0.577)? I forget the rule.
