Re: [Elecraft] RFI and Direct tv or Dish network

Had Dish-NET for several years and switched to Direct-TV two years ago during a time there was contract dispute between Ch.13 (Anchorage) and Dish-NET that threatened that they would not carry the network programming. We are 65-90 miles from the TV stations which makes digital TV not

Amphenol connectors will have the brand name and model number marked on them. All of my PL-259's are either Andrew Heliax connectors or they are Amphenol 83-1SP. I have been using 83-1SP's for decades, I did have one where the barrel threads were not cut properly and it did not screw together.

I sometimes buy single parts or small quantity on ebay. The price can be pretty good, delivery is quick and often without s/h charges. However, it is a slight gamble. For example, a few PL-259's i recently bought: the shell on one would not thread correctly. They looked like genuine Amphenol

Re: [Elecraft] K3 NB

A lot of NB success on power line noise has to do with what state the noise is in when it gets to you. If the source is near, and the waveform is not smeared, the K3 NB does very well. The problem comes when a source is rather distant, and is getting to you conducted over something like a mile of
