Para-sets and books
See photos below from Les Invalids (Sp) Military Museum in Paris if, they come through the Reflector.
Many of you have probably already read The Secret Wireless War -The Story of MI6 Communications

Re: Of interest, a "paraset" connection
Yes, it seemed that those stationed at "listening posts" were the most vulnerable.
Since batteries were a scarce commodity, non-listening post stations completely shut down and hid the radio after

Re: Of interest, a "paraset" connection
Part of the problem also was that the allies were using direct conversion receivers in their sets. For those who aren't aware, DC receivers tend to emit a heterodyne right on the frequency they're

Re: Field Day Reports
I had a meager QRP operation from the lake property.
I used the 250' Horizontal loop (after I repaired one corner that blew down sometime over the past two weeks...) then made 95 contacts

Re: Field Day Reports
I had my information on the Facebook Group, but not everyone reads Facebook. I was out for perhaps 2 1/2 hours, certainly no more. 5 watts, vertical, 20 meters only. Solar charging and battery

Re: Random Wire Tuning - Take 2
This interests me, although don't own a KX2. My K1-4 has 15, 20, 30, and 40M. It also has a KAT1 internal tuner. I usually use a SOTA tuner to load a 34' wire in a tree with the internal tuner

Re: Field Day Reports
this was a fun event..learned a lot about power budget management with solar panel and battery as power source. I waited until after 18:00Z on Saturday to throw my dipole up into a a couple of trees
