Brian,
You were very loud in Round Rock, Texas. My XYL came in right as I turned it to you, and I missed out on you turning it over to Bill K5PML. Yes the noise was bad, as was 3880 LSB SSB, 3878 LSB SSB, and another AM QSO on 3885. My SP-600 just could not do it with the weaker stations since the QRM all blended in with the person I was trying to copy. Opening up to 8 kc bandwidth, and it was like the Borg queen hearing all the voices of the collective at the same time!! Last night was made for razor sharp mechanical filters, passband tuning, DSP, audio processing before the headphones, etc. The Icom R-75 made the difference last night, but when the guy in Dallas come on with the KW-1, back to the SP-600 at 8kc; Wall to wall angel music.

Paul, It was horribly noisy here, however those west and south of me did not hear the noise as I did, but rather had problems with another unrelated QSO on 3880. I tried to pick up some check-ins here that W0NKL could not hear. I managed to get WD5JKO/Jim and K5PML, but after JKO turned it back to me and I turned it to Bill/K5PML, either he couldn't hear me or the band was going long. -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
