Last week, while tuning around on 20 meters,I heard a
conversion between a VK station and a US military aircraft. The Australian
ham ask the air mobile operator if he had a ham call and the answer was
no. The operator on the aircraft said that he was bored up there on a long
flight and just
I know for sure that SOME of the intentional
interference that occurs on dxpeditions is from these unlicensed operators who
have better ham equipment that a lot of us have. They get a big thrill
from doing that when their efforts are rewarded by hams trying to get them to
stop. We can look
I'll bet there are at least 50 different theories
about the guy that caused the problem.Here is mine. The guy needs
KP5 for aall time new one, he is convinced that FWL has not
given permission and the contacts will not count for DXCC. He is sure that
these guys have ruined his chance for a

I must add one more as I know this for a fact. Now that we are near the
bottom of this sunspot cycle, some of those Freeband Nuts in Europe and the
US that have all that expensive ham gear can't use it much on 27 28 MHz.
They are having Big Fun QRMing ham DXpeditions and braging about

Hey Guys,

screen, flat panel TV and I have heard that the plasma units cause some
significant interference in some parts of the ham bands. Has anyone had
any experience with such a problem? I would hate to spend the big bucks
then ask the XYL to
This rule has been discussed many times. At the Visalia DX Convention for
example, Wayne Mills talked about it at length before a very large crowd of
DXers. He even ask for a show of hands from those who would like to see
some new additions to the list. The response was overwhelmingly
I'm not trying to beat you Frank because this is not exactly the same, but I am
the QSL manager for a operation that took place in 1977 and I recently got a
card from a guy that needed a contact conformation to add to his DX Challenge.
I found his contact in the log and sent him a card. I
The satellite phone they have requires a beamed signal to the satellite and
in the rough sea with the ship rocking and rolling they can't keep a

happen in some parts of the world but the request may
The European DXers that need KP5 will be pleased to know that the US Fish
Wildlife Service has allowed the expansion of the area for antennas. This
expansion includes the top of the high hill on the island. That hill would
have a blocking effect on signals to Europe but with the antennas on
