Re: 40 AND 80 METER NET REPORT

That "Almost!" is surprising. Frankly I had no business getting into the 80m mix. I could hear Johnny but could barely copy 10 percent of whatever he was sending. Dropping my call sign a couple of times was just wishful thinking. But Johnny's sharp ears
heard it.
Pushing 5 watts across 1,100 miles in late May is a daunting challenge.
I'll try to be more sensible henceforth.

Re: 75A

Another 75A question. Just built one. The xmit carrier output is 1 watt. The RX sensitivity is approx 15 microvolts and the RX frequency is offset approx. 66khz from the xmit frequency. What did I do wrong? Thanks for any input. Dave Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

Re: 40 AND 80 METER NET REPORT
Paul, For Park QRP I now have a Yaesu FT-818 w/CW 300 filter but have not updated my QRZ page yet. At the base, as used last night, I use my Yaesu FT-450D with its DSP and Filters @ 300 CW and a 9:1 35ft EF Inv V. What I need to work on 7122 is a super beam but due to HOA there's no chance. I realize that they have the right to be there but it seems that they are centered on 7125 and probably at QRO level, in Spanish which I don't speak with probably a slightly loose transmitter. I simply cannot overcome their signals with all of my weapons. I can just almost see the edge of the Gulf of Mexico from my rooftop so I have a good shot to Latin America. They do disappear around 7120. When Bill, KV6Z ran the Net I could work him FB just about every time but the SB group was not on the air then. I guess that I will not even try if I hear them on, I haven't been able to hit the Net from Maine either but that's not surprising due to the trees in the campground there, I may try from the beach this year as the is now open till 2200L. Thanks for your concern, we'll not loose faith ! 73, John KK4ITX Click Here for Zephyrhills Area Amateur Radio Club Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

John,
Does your X1M Xiegu’s receiver have a narrow CW filter? I didn’t see
any mention in the Quick Reference manual. Yes there is adjacent SSB on 40
meters but a good narrow CW filter will kill most of it. Or if you are using
your FT818, does that have the narrow CW filter installed? If not, you need an
external narrow audio filter!

could barely hear CW over the SB on adjacent frequency so I dropped down to the
WSPR area and ran it for a few minutes around 9:20 EDT. The indicators are
that the Band was good from my area except for the QRM. See attached. It’s
frustrating when you know you should be able to do something but continuously
get skunked by Legal QRM.

Re: OHR Sprint I instructions
Dave Redfearn
Charles,
I have a couple of OHR Sprints - 30 & 40 M. I have a photocopy of the 30 & 40 Meter manuals that I got from Marshall last year. These have direct conversion receivers and make about 1-2 watts output. Not sure that there was a Sprint I & II though, there may have be a Spirit I & II. email me direct at "my call" at arrl.net. Dave, N4ELM

qrp-tech is dead. The successor of that groups is called qrptech and many people moved there when Chuck killed the old qrp-tech group.

I have been trying to find instructions for the Oak Hills Research Sprint 1 30 meters QRP rig (from around 1992 or 1993). I built it in high school and now it does not seem to function. Does anyone by any chance have the instructions in pdf format? I was able to get a pdf copy of the Sprint II instructions but it is my understanding that the Spring I and Sprint II use different transmitters. I tried to reach out to the successor to OHR, Milestone Tech, but I don’t believe that company is active any more. Thank you, Charles, KN6kR

I didn't admit you into the group. I just looked up your member number. The "powers that be" admitted you into the group. I think if you have a valid amateur license callsign, admission is pretty automatic. 72, John, AA0VE
