That IS a great demo video Gary. And great loggings too, as usual. If it’s July on the northwest coast radio guys are out doing crazy things to hear DU DX!
I went by Rockworks 4 yesterday and once you saw it, Mark, you would NOT want to attempt a DKAZ! Even those who do not suffer from vertigo would ‘think twice’ about the drop! ;-) However, a 160’ DKAZ erected at 800’ ASL down the coast a bit between Yachats and Florence, OR was getting almost as good a signal on 531 as Gary had. More later but I just arrived at a place called San Souci up an old logging road about a mile off Rt. 101 in a Home Away rental that I’ve been to a couple of previous summers and it never fails to satisfy. BTW, I’m NOT using remote Rt on this DKAZ nor one I left behind for a few days at Grayland. Ended up using the old ‘bring the radio to the antenna’ method using a very nice Anker battery that puts out 5V [for the Perseus] and 12V [for a Wellbrook FLG100LN] at the same time! Ended up terminating the Grayland DKAZ with 867 ohms and the one here in San Souci with 820 ohms. More later on null depths but they’re ‘sufficient.' — On Jul 22, 2014, at 4:39 AM, Mark Durenberger <[email protected]> wrote: > I probably would have wanted to swing out a D-Kaz...and then you might have > had Oregon’s Highway Patrol suddenly interested :-)) > > Regards, > > Mark Durenberger > > > > > From: [email protected] > Sent: Monday, July 21, 2014 9:40 PM > To: [email protected] ; [email protected] > Subject: Re: [IRCA] South Pacific DXing Demonstration Video-- 531-PI in > Auckland,NZ > > Thanks for your comment, Mark!
