Re: [IRCA] AM BCB DX……NEW Province # 9 British Columbia
Hi Kaz, Correct on the QTH and antenna. I do have a possible spot for another DKAZ to the west, but the feedline would probably be around 200 feet or maybe a little more. It would also be right in a tree line, so I'd probably suspend the tops from trees instead of using poles. Hmmm. I'll have to go take a closer look. Speaking of feedlines, how do you all run your feedlines from the antenna to the house / shack? I'm assuming most of you either bury the cable (either in conduit or with direct-bury cable) or you run it back through trees off of the ground. Does anyone just leave the feedline lie on top of the ground, and then you move it every time you mow? Or maybe you don't mow and just let goats eat the grass. I've considered that. Except they'd probably eat the coax too. Mark On 2016-10-10 12:58 pm, Neil Kazaross wrote: Mark, you're in Goshen IN if I recall and with a new DKAZ south.

Re: [IRCA] AM BCB DX……NEW Province # 9 British Columbia
Congrats big time on the new province logged! I sort of take hearing Vancouver stations for granted here in SoCal, but all the way to Ontario is cause for celebration. CHMJ was CKLG for so many years. 'Miss their top 40 sound. I've never actually bagged CHQR at this location, 'should try harder.
