Ok, that makes sense. Now what about weak signals in noise (no QRM): any idea which pitch is better there? And I wonder about keying speed (element length): a shorter element must carry better at a higher pitch I would think. Of course, it doesn't matter much if your own ears have a problem with the theoretical best pitch, i suppose. 73, Drew AF2Z _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
