Re: [Elecraft] OT: 15 meters last night

About 8 pm here in southern Utah I was listening to W1AW code practice on 10 meters.   Good strong signal - received on a ground-mounted trap vertical antenna.  And I could hear a bunch of 10 meter beacon stations. Alan N1AL On 5/26/22 17:46, Wayne Burdick wrote: Amazing is the only word

Wayne, Last night 15 m was fantastic from EL29. The ancient K3 bagged: VU2 EX 8Q7 AP BY and a host of EU, JA, VK, etc. I'm running 100 w with a 3 ele triband yagi at about 60 ft. Robie AJ4F On Thu, May 26, 2022 at 6:48 PM Wayne Burdick wrote: > Amazing is the only word for it. I haven't

Yep, I noticed here in New Mexico. ;-) Slightly higher on 12 meters I saw a station in Kenya doing FT8 that was on nearly all day and up until bedtime here last night. Converting to Africa time, it had to have been 4 or 5 in the morning there, which means the band stayed open for them

Amazing is the only word for it. I haven't heard an opening to EU like that on 15 m at close to midnight PST for...about 11 years. I just happened to be testing new firmware on the K4. Thought I'd wrap it up and get to bed. (Not. Much DX worked on CW.) Anyone else notice? Wayne N6KR

Rolling off at 150 Hz is not an issue with FT8. I haven’t had my radio long enough to really give it a good look. My reply before was based on what the other person stated with the “hump”. I do use the USB to PC for digital and in very limited use have not had an issue except a couple of

I asked about this same thing for my KX3 and never got any interest (or reply). I was expecting flat from 0.01 to .0 for the K4D.  Better, but not zero point zero. With input from many, maybe it will happen (for KX3, too).  Maybe CESSB for the KX3 ?? The roll-off is also an issue for
