Re: [DX-CHAT] Yemen
I would suggest you keep your rig, and amplifier (that goes on 110AC) and at least a 2 ele. beam (armstrong aimed)...you got a chance...CW is your best bet.

Re: [DX-CHAT] CW blah, blah, blah
Harry some people never seem to "get it"! Who hasn't made a keying mistake? Who hasn't been able to copy every letter of the "roadrunner" cw op?? I never had received a QLF until I went on a DXpedition. (of all places!!) I was on Sable Island back in 1996 (CYØAA), was on 40 meters at about 3-4 AM running a pileup. I had a total of maybe 2-3 hours of sleep that day (and from days before) and was literally falling asleep sitting up!!! I went QRZand proceeded to nod off again. My eye-hand coordination wasn't there. The keyer was sending one thing, I was thinking another. I even slowed it down, and still couldn't function, but was willing to keep trying. I ran several hundred guys that night on 40, but everyone that didn't work me that night can thank the one guy that sent QLF? several times.the pile up was still thick , but I'd had enough. I went to bed.. People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.. 73 all... Ken WA8JOC The best thing to hit the internet in years - Juno SpeedBand! Surf the web up to FIVE TIMES FASTER!

Re: [DX-CHAT] Lamp from old tubes at Dayton?
Yep...Dave K8MN (then J52US) made one from a "shore transmitting station" final tube when he was in Guinea Bissau. I recall Bencht (J52BLU) had given him an old burnt out tube when he was working on the shore station. It's about 12" in diameter and about 18" tall. VERY impressive piece of furniture when you see it. I did see a vendor in Dayton several years ago, but he was in the flea market selling his smaller tubes made into lights, nothing like this giant thing!! Good luck in your hunt!! 73 Ken WA8JOC The best thing to hit the internet in years - Juno SpeedBand! Surf the web up to FIVE TIMES FASTER! Only $14.95/ month - visit www.juno.com to sign up today!
