Jeff,
I wish I were close to you so that I could help, but KY to the West
Coast is a bit far. I would, however, like to commend and encourage you
to work on your code speed. On the air experience is great, but there
are alternatives. Some keyers have an option to send random code groups.
Dave, you may be right but, as one who doesn't like classical music, I
read your music tip a bit differently.
I'm thinking ... yea, listen to classical music for a while. After
that CW will be like music to your ears and you'll be able to tolerate a
longer practice session. In fact, if you

While driving to church one day, I spotted a car at a red light. The
driver was a retired man in a suit and tie. His passenger was a well
dressed lady in her mid 60's. I concluded they were on their way to
church, just like my family and me. On the roof of the car, right above

Hi Keith,
Yup, I know that joke about the pipers. I have friends who are pipers. I
am a trumpet player. I enjoy many types of music, but my favorite is big
band music from the 20's 30's and 40's. I play lead trumpet in a 16
piece big band. We are all retired and we play in retirement homes,
Hello Elecraft,
if still a tester needed for the paddle, i would be interested.
I am an active CW op on the SOTA (summits on the air) programm in central

Hi
I have been supplying a Solar Charge Controller Kit for several years. This
controller will keep a SLA or LA 12 volt battery charged from solar panels
of 3 to about 150 watts. Batteries of 2 amp hour to 110 amp hour have been
used with these controllers.

I built 2 of Don's controllers for Field Day a while back and they worked
great! Simple to build and an excellent value in my opinion!

If anyone needs a QSL from Orange County, NY for the ARRL 160M test (or any
other QSO's for that matter) send SASE and I'll get one out to you.

Just in time for Christmas... sort of. For all of you who expressed
interest in the LP-200 project, I have added Buy Now PayPal buttons on
the LP-200 webpage. Deliveries will start in early January, due to
manufacturing lead time on the PCB and bottom plate.
I made some small changes,

Would you (or anyone) please elaborate on the use of an Rx antenna?
Thanks

This was the first time I used the Rx Antenna feature
and it was invaluable.
Thanks to everyone for a great 'test!

Bill,
Often low efficiency antennas make great low noise receiving antennas -
example is a multiturn loop which can be quite directional, but transmit
efficincy would be almost 'zip'. Another example is traveling wave antennas
such as the Beverage - which also are directional, but the efficiency
It allows you to use a separate antenna for receiving. Often such an antenna
can provide a superior signal-to-noise ratio than the main antenna,
especially if you're using a vertical for transmitting. I have a wire a
couple of feet above the ground running along my fence that often provides
Hi, I have a very nice IC-271H that is fresh from the factory after
being updated and aligned. .2uv RX and 105 Watts Xmt. I would like
to offer for unfinished or unbuilt or excess Elecraft kits that would
match in value. $425 or so. Pix at www.kalkwarf.com/k7rlk

I am in the process of testing the BFO on page 62. Everything tested fine up
to this point but now I can not get the proper BFO range. The BFO high
frequency is 4917.56 and the BFO low frequency is 4914.26. This provides a BFO
range of 3.2 kHz. It appears that I can not the the BFO low
I got an envelope of QSL cards from the bureau today and one of them
was for a contact I made on vacation in France last year with OH0EC
(DL1EKC) in the Aland Islands. I was running my K2 and MP-1 from my
hotel room in Tourcoing and he was running a K2-100. Thanks, Marcus!

Greetings Elecrafters!
Bought this built, it is in excellent condition. I have been using it daily
for several months and made hundreds of QSOs on all bands. I wouldn't part
with it but I have to sell something to get something new, and I want to try
building my own.

Craig,
What prompted you to get back into the fray?
Well, a few months ago I received a QSL card from Canada in the mail by
mistake. Looking at the card, I started thinking about the old days. I
haven't been on the air since around 1981 or so.
Then, a week or so ago, the subject of Heathkit

The fundamental problem on the low bands is the high noise level. A
good transmitting antenna can often have S6-9 noise, or worse. It's
hard to hear weak signals with
Bill and others,
The explanations by Don Ron were as always right on and very helpful.
I already knew the answers but enjoyed reading the replies anyway. I
still have questions, though, too, so please continue to read on (we get
there eventually).
I would like to point out a couple of
