Hi Jeff,
What you are describing sounds like some kind of 3D sound. That's
interesting. I think it can be summed up as Elecraft MOJO. This past
weekend, I was running up and down the 17 meter band and couldn't hear any
signals. It was late in the afternoon. On my way back down, I heard a very
faint signal. It was a Japanese station. I tried to spot him as best I could
and then called him with 10 watts on CW with my homebrew vertical ground
plane, using my K2. He heard me! We exchanged signal reports. I was amazed!
Now I know that propagation and the antenna has a lot to do with, at least
that is what the left brained, no nonsense, I don't believe it unless I can
measure it, feel it, hear it, see it, taste it or smell it crowd, would say.
But, the MOJO seems to be way beyond that and becomes almost a spiritual
experience. :-) I think many of us have had some kind of experience like
that, except for the people mentioned above ;-)
I may have to order a K3.
Gary, N7HTS
