Are at this AGAIN ! WA6VAB Ray K3
From: Bob McGraw Sent: Thursday, November 25, 2021 8:22 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] Legal Limit With FT8 Does he blot out your K3S on all bands, or just if you if both are on the same band? I have some avid DX'ers within 20 miles or less of my QTH, one runs a 4 ele Steppr and legal limit. He and I can be on the same band, both working FT-8 and neither knows the other is on the band. Oh, I see his signal but certainly there is no receiver overload on my part. As to him likely having a non-Elecraft radio.......can't say. But perhaps the other fellow is causing some serious splatter. If so, that may be justification to contact one of the ARRL Volunteer Monitors. If the issue is verified, that report goes to HQ, and they review the case. And it may get turned over to the FCC. At which point I am sure he would become very interested in what his equipment is doing. No one likes to justify their operation to the FCC. If you are having overload issues, perhaps you need to review your receiver configuration, set-up, and operating practice. Or just go to another band. 73 Bob, K4TAX On 11/25/2021 8:55 PM, [email protected] wrote: > Message: 21 > Date: Thu, 25 Nov 2021 20:56:11 -0500 > From: Bill Coleman<[email protected]> > To: Richard<[email protected]> > Cc: Elecraft<[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Legal Limit With FT8 > Message-ID:<[email protected]> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii > > How much, power, exactly, is this fellow running? > >> On Nov 11, 2021, at 8:16 AM, Richard<[email protected]> wrote: >> >> There's a major jerk who lives within about 20 miles of me who runs BIG >> power with FT8.
