Re: [Elecraft] Interesting QSO

I use 420 Hz +/- these days when DXing.  With 40 year younger ears I used to use 500-600 Hz on MS and EME. On 3/13/2021 11:50 AM, Sverre Holm (LA3ZA) wrote: Wayne. A CW sidetone pitch of 400 Hz is consistent with what little research there is on this. A paper from 1992 stated that "All

[Elecraft] Interesting QSO

I just finished a QSO with a QRP station in Bend, Oregon on 40 m that was memorable for a couple of reasons: First, that we managed it all despite awful atmospheric noise and poor propagation, and second, that it highlighted many the K4's tools for digging out weak signals. By the end of the

[Elecraft] Interesting QSO

I was on my deck today with the KX1 and the bands were really bad here. I was trying a Par 40/20 end fed antenna on top of a new Jackite 28-foot windsock pole. I called CQ near 7040 anyway and a VE3 came back to me. No big deal, but he was on SSB! We had a nice QSO for about 20 minutes. I
