So I'm trying WSJT-X MSK144 first time on my K3S - running 150W into a PAR AO-50 vertical loop at 30ft in Southern NH. Settings Rx 1500, F Tol 200, T/R 15s on Fast Decode (older 8 core CPU won't do Deep). By doing it wrong my local HAMs have kindly let me know to TX Odd on East Coast. I also had the K3S set on split for a while and got that fixed (off). Tx was at 50.313 in RED (how I didn't notice is beyond me). Now, set Tx 50.260.00, I got a QSO immediately during the Perseids meteor shower.
Yesterday, despite wrong settings, I managed 3 QSOs from a 43ft vertical, which is a good bit less efficient than the loop, to GA, MO & IA from NH. Dunno how! Does a 6m loop or vertical, dipole tuned to 6m via base rATU) cause much havoc with nearby HAMS on MSK144 if we're all TXing Odd? Any other MSK144/K3S tips & tricks appreciated - short of "install a good Yagi on a beam" - wife says negative ;-) Thanks, 73, Bret/N4SRN -- Sent from: http://elecraft.365791.n2.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 Message delivered to [email protected]
