The Spanish speaking SSB stations last night were parked on the 40 meter frequency of 7060 Khz because they were QRMing my stint as N4A, the NAQCC 9th Anniversary Special Event station, on 7058

That would have been me, Terry. Weird night, lots of QSB. You were 549 in OK City, but it appears to be have been a one way street! 72, Mike N5JKY

Better band than last week and chekins were up as a result. I heard someone at the very end trying hard, but I couldnt pull him out of the noise. You know who you are, thank you for trying and

Most of the ssb I hear around that area is from South America. I've workedtwo Venezuelan stations on 7123 cross mode. Randy_KB4QQJ

----snip-- Hi, I do hear some stuff. U.S. Advanced and Extra Class hams may operate phone modes right down to 7125. Sidebands should NOT "hang over the edge". Our receiver filters should not allow

Makes a good indicator of the band open to.......a Spanish speaking country. I like to turn my 40 meter ....... vertical that way to search the band for new ones. (new Spanish speaking countries....

I've heard SSB too and assumed it was Canadians to the North. But, I couldn't understand them as they are on the wrong sideband for my SS-40 rig up there, so don't know for sure. 72, Jim, K8IQY

Hi Terry, Many South American countries can operate ANY mode anywhere in the 40 meter band as well as all the other bands. There is occasionally a bunch of Spanish speaking stations running SSB right

The Four State QRP Comfortable nets meet each Wednesday night beginning at 7:30 PM CDT, 0030z. If we have to QSY, I like to move up, Wayne likes to move down, and Dick doesn't have to move much at

Just curious, At one time I thought that the voices that we heard on 7122 were Canadian hams using SSB. But after looking at their band plan (below), I'm not so sure. It looks like we should be

I've been thinking of putting sides on the QRPometer using scrap PC board, but that would make it harder to change the battery. -- Tom Sevart N2UHC St. Paul, KS

I'll be looking for you with my new antenna... but not the big one. Have a great day, --... ...--Dale - WC7S in Wy

Here is how I solved the exposed wiring of the meter. Radio Shack sells a project box that works. A little bit of whittling on the box and also on the corners of the bottom circuit board and the board

"I don't want to try to calculate the " smiles per dollar" Johnny, no a person never wants to go there, it is sobering to say the lease:-) I did that for the pheasants brought home from a hunting

Tom, Neat way to solve this weakness of the QRP-o-meter! In my opinion this the only problem with the meter. cu es 72, Bart W0IIT Pittsburg, KS 4Sqrp = #72, FP= #11, ARS=#568, SKCC=1139, NAQCC=#588

Wow!!! Phil thank you for doing that antenna calculation for me. That is very interesting and intriguing. I would never have thought that my dipole would be a true blue nvis. We should be able to

Paring down my collection just a bit -- On the block is a nice Vibroplex "Champion" model, vintage 1962 in good operating condition with an extra weight to slow it down some. Base is grey crackle

Very cool Steve, very cool! I see you pressed your T1 into service, isn't that just the neatest ASTU?. Anyhow, I was going to suggest that you box em up separately, the magic Box is so useful for the
