Thanks for all the comments gentlemen. Regarding the RX antenna, I've been reading lots lately on the subject trying to figure what will work given my pathetic QTH space limitions and HOA restrictions. Quite a challenge indeed. In fact, more of a challenge than I'd like. I may have to be content with WAS on 80m rather than true dx'ing on 160. Time will tell.
Regarding contesting, as I reflect on my antenna situation I may have to take contesting more seriously and participate just to get some decent contacts and increase the qso count on 80/160. Odds are probably greater that I'll snag some real dx during those events. Living rear Raleigh, I'd be surprised if some big signal guys aren't near me that are contesters. So maybe a narrower filter is the way to go? And as far as roofing filters, it would be nice if there was a questionairre with 50 questions that would just spit out the recommended configuration based on the answers. But that's dreaming. I might just have to flip a three sided coin. But I do appreciate all the feedback. 73. chuck AF4XK -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/need-some-roofing-filter-advice-tp6581353p6584099.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
