Re: [Elecraft] Band Conditions

The bands could be better, they could be worse. I think the real knowledge we have about propagation of radio waves is that it is always changing. In the NAQP yesterday, I worked CA, FL, and ME on 20 meters, in the late afternoon, with a homebrew fishing pole vertical, and my KX1 at about 3w.

I worked LU5DYV in Argentina on June 10th, on 20m. I did it with a Anttron Hamwhip on my Taurus while driving across I-70 in Indiana. The rig, was the awesome KX-1 at about 2w. A few mins later I hear N5KY in QSO all the way from Albequrque NM...he gave me an honest to goodness 569 on my KX1 2w

I could be wrong...but I think the NB is desgned to block out automobile ignition noise, which comes in real handy when it is in a K2 doing Mobile Operations. You can try it in your car, with the car running and see what kind of difference it makes. 73 - Original Message - From: Mike
