Conditions were quite poor this week, signal levels several dB down on normal.
We did discuss starting the net an hour earlier in future as we head towards summer, while I appreciate some will not be up and around at 0900 local time, many will and conditions should be better although the down side will be potentially stronger continental QRM. Often in summer I go out portable on 6m so might not be around to start the net throughout the summer months when the weather is sunny and warm. Two of the stations had vertical antennas and radials, the station who had done a lot of measurements with differing numbers of radials is Rudy, N6LF, and his web site is: http://www.antennasbyn6lf.com/ Stations this week were: G4CGG, Richard (had to leave prior to the net) M0CIC, Roy G4ARI, Tim F5VJC, Denis G3RCE, Robert 73 until next week Dave, G4AON K3/100, Acom 1000, dipole ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
