[HCDX] New Copper Ground Rods
I installed the separate two 5 foot copper pipes for ground rods for the 1500' beverage, so I have a separate ground for the two matching transformers for the SW EWE and beverage. With how wet our soil is and the rods are all sitting in water, I am getting a conductivity between all of the ground rods in the yard, almost like a direct short. I guess the story is true that water conducts electricity just fine. So, I have no idea if using the separate rods really makes that much difference. The directivity of the beverage is a bit different on certain frequencies, but over all there is little difference. Maybe I might notice a difference come Summer with less moisture in the ground. The field next door has 2-4 feet of water in it and the copper pipes all go down to below that level. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin KAVT Reception Manager ---[Start Commercial]- Order your WRTH 2008: http://www.hard-core-dx.com/redirect2.php?id=wrth2008 ---[End Commercial]--- Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ ___ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.

[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs February 3-5
** CUBA. More network feed/frequency mixups at RHC, if their published schedules are to be believed: Sunday Feb 3 at 1440 found the Aló, Presidente service on unscheduled 12000 with one of the lead-up fill programs, Entre Cubanos; at 1440 said A,P would be coming up in 20-25 minutes on 13680, 13750, 11670, 11875, 17705(?); at 1443, 12000 had Somos Jóvenes, // 11875, weak 11670. Meanwhile, at 1444, main RHC separate musical program was axually heard in // on 11760, 11805, 13680, 13750. 1604 recheck, A,P was on 11670, 11875, 13750, 17750, but not audible on 13680. Later Feb 3 at 2233, found RHC in Creole VG on 17705: must have been sporadic E opening rather than weak F2 skip, and was // 9505 and 5965, the two scheduled frequencies for the 2230 Creole service while 17705 is supposed to be in Guarani! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. Wondering where Arnie Coro is, having missed new DXers Unlimited shows the past few weeks? UT Feb 5 at 0630 I heard him on 11760 with a ``news update``, phoned-in as usual. But was it really news? If so, hardly breaking (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. R. Nacional, 6250, presumed, Feb 3 at 0705 in hilife music; reported active lately (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. XERTA, presumed, 4800, Feb 3 after 0700, music in quick check, heavy CODAR QRM. Have not had much sign of this before, so maybe improved antenna and/or power (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NEW ZEALAND. RNZI, 17675 analog, coming in well, Feb 4 at 2045 with report about Maori activities, but transmittercut off in the middle of a sentence at 2050! In previous schedules, this has been a frequency change time, so figured they were still doing it, with no regard for programming in progress, but checking current schedule, not so, supposed to continue. I looked for 15720, but nothing there either. When I got back to 17675 at 2055, a much weaker signal was there, presumably RNZI. Transmitter problem? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A [and non]. What`s not to like about Unshackled? Tue Feb 5 at 1332, that show on a weak WWCR 15825 signal had some bubble-type jamming pulsing 4 or 5 times a second with frequency shift, also centered on 15825 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** VENEZUELA [non]. Aló, Presidente: see CUBA UNIDENTIFIED. 11795, weak DRM signal centered here, 1337 Feb 5. Maybe HCJB playing around, as no one sked here at this time, but they are at 23-24 only in Portuguese (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ### Never miss a thing.
