They are going to be there for awhile. The idea is to stay in the 
advanced/extra portions until the pile thins and then go up. Pretty 
common if you think about it. Only $14 and a 50 question test and you 
have no complaints!

This is what drove me to get my Extra back in 1999... there were a
bunch of good DXpeditions, every once and a while I'd be lucky and
they'd be on 14.025 listening up, but mostly not.

Montenegro is going to be as common as YU anyway, I expect... this
isn't exactly a rare one.

I'm scheduled to be one of the 4O3T ops the last week of operation. 
4O3T with a Texas accent hi hi.  I'll try to listen well up in the 
general class band when I operate. Just listen for 4O3T with a Texus 
twang.  Ghee haw!

[DX-CHAT] 4o3T online log

2006-07-24 Thread Barry
I checked the 4O3T online log at 
http://www.yu6scg.cg.yu/log-book-search.html and my 30m QSO from 7/20 
isn't there.  I wonder if it's a glitch in the log or I need to work 
them again.  Anyone else missing QSOs from that day?

73,
Barry

GL on your end of the trip Tom.

With any luck, I'll have an antenna operational at the new QTH by then!
That is, once I find where the coax was buried (in amongst the boxes, that
is), get a desk cleared off, unbury the rig...

...hey, at least Verizon was here today to get my Internet connection back
up  running.  Now, you could say the techs were lazy... instead of running
an Ethernet line from the basement demark to the computer, they gave me a
wireless USB adapter for the computer.  OK, so it's Part 15 802.11b, but RF
is RF, right?  g

Actually, they probably did you a big favour, to be honest. Networks 
using unshielded Cat-5 can do some fun stuff to 20m, especially right 
around 14212  14273 at this QTH. If I ever get abmitious here I'll 
go 802.11g throughout the house and just hope I don't have to do 
massive file transfers any more.

RE: [DX-CHAT] 4O3T

2006-07-24 Thread Ron Notarius W3WN
Ummm... I'm not so sure.  I never had problems on 20 (or any other band for
that matter) at either of my past 2 QTH's from the network.  Granted, at the
old house, I was running 10Base-2 (that's supposed to be RG-58, as you
know... I ran RG-8X, got more than one argument from some other IT pros that
you can't do that, it can't possibly work but that's another story) from
the shack upstairs and 10Base-T everywhere else.  My TS-140 is a touch flaky
on 20, but I think that's a rig issue, not a networking issue.

Funny thing, they put the wireless router in the basement, about 15 feet
diagonally away from the computer (the computer is in a 2 room addition on
the back of the house, but the previous owners didn't bother to extend the
basement).  Granted, there's some walls and such there, but I'd still have
expected better than a 42 throughput.

N3ZK had offered to come over and help me do some wiring in the house.  Had
hoped to do it before the move-in, but neither of our schedules permitted.
Randy doesn't have a problem with crawl spaces, unlike the Verizon guys.
I'd rather run the wiring anyway... for that matter, almost all of my
Ethernet cards are Etherlink III 10BaseT combo cards, so I can always go
back to a coax run for the network.  Now in which box did I stash those
terminators and BNC T connectors? g
