[Elecraft] CW net

I have listened for the 40 meter net on 7.045 for the last 4 weeks. Today I heard 1 station which I think was a W6 but he was so far down in the noise level I was not able to copy anything. I am in Washington State and the propagation does not seem to favor distance to the net control at 5 pm

Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500 additional info

Unfortunately, a power limit is much like a speed limit on the highway; I'm good unless I get caught. Ever since I've been a Ham there are others like that. In the west in the 1950s we called them "California Kilowatts" who would brag about putting out 5 or 10 kW or more on the Ham bands. Once

Re: [Elecraft] KPA1500 additional info

Bill, While it may be possible, I do not believe the amplifier itself will impose power limits on 30 and 60 meters. Other countries do not have the same limits that we have in the US. It is ultimately up to the operator to not exceed the power limits for those bands. 73, Don W3FPR On

Not too many reading posts on this reflector who do not know what a callsign is. It is part of reflector courtesy IMHO. I do not include my callsign on non ham reflector posts, nor do I sign with '73'. In other words, I do not have a signature file that attaches automatically - easy enough

It makes little sense to make a signature with a call sign when most people outside of amateur radio would have no idea what it is? There is no need for a signature when the name is already in the sent field. If it matters then simply send a polite e-mail asking the person what their call
