Dang it... forgot

The contest for the field key is in honor of my SK friend Jerry Haigood. I use a couple of his designs very often so it just seemed like the thing to do.

QRP'ian Podcast Field Key Contest
Mike Malone
Hey gangue, we have a field key design contest cooking with a May 15th deadline for entries. If you search KD5KXF on ITunes podcast search and listen to Episode 2 and follow entry instructions you could win a very cool out of production kit. Only hints I will give is it hears real good on 40 and was designed by some old hand named Jim K. So send your entries gangue, let me make you infamous and enriched with one of my favorite rigs... complete ham assembly required.

We Have A Band Opening! No 80 meter QRP rig or antenna for 80 ( yet ). However! - I did hear your CQ CQ de WA0ITP WA0ITP through the Gulf Coast QRN. Definate ID on your signal, but very weak in the noise. I ordered a Cricket and have a dipole cut for the low end of 80 ready to glue the coax to soon. It's tough getting old. 73, Sam Neal N5AF Celebrating 60 Years In Amateur Radio ______________________________________________________________

Back in a hotel room again. The 10 mW the mag loop puts out on 80 meters wouldn’t be worth the effort, even if it would tune that low!

Hello Guys Thanks Terry for another cricket to cricket Qso. Amazing what a 1/2 watt can do! I had good copy on your qso with W0EB, Jim in Park City. Ron, I was listening on the side but I didn't hear you? 72 Johnny AC0BQ On Sun, Apr 23, 2017 at 8:13 PM AG1P Ron <ag1p@...> wrote:

Re: Cricket on 3580
Wow! Actually worked Terry, WA0ITP on 3.57987. RST was 339 in QSB and
heavy QRN so I'm really surprised I could hear him at all on 80 meters. The QRN level on my P3 Panadapter is running right at S3 right now and Terry was in and out of it but I was able to copy about 80 percent down here in Park City, KS (Wichita area). I was using my K3S throttled back to 5 watts into an Alpha Delta DX-LB 160/80/40 trap dipole only 35 feet high at the center and maybe 20 feet on the North end and 10 feet high on the South end. It gets out really well on 40, but 80 and 160 are pretty marginal with that antenna. Can't wait until the Crickets are available on the website and they should actually post the manual right away because some of them left Branson unassembled and there are no instructions until the manual shows up on the website.
