Not hearing anything. Called CQ a few times.

KD4POJ....i think he's a baser. Name looks familiar, but not the call.

Planning on chewing the rag the whole way. Thinking of 14.308 USB. Suggestions? Anyone interested?

I haven't been on in a while either but the rig is beside me if you want to try.  It's been some time since the bands have let me talk to Florida...

I'd love to, except I've got people cutting holes in my kitchen ceiling because a 1" iron water pipe burst.

Don't tell my wife, but I think it's funny

Anyways, I pulled down my antenna before the work crew got here.

ETA:  What are the specs on your dipole?  You using a tuner or ??

had a dipole on my roof. coulduse it for PSK, but noise was too loud for voice on HF.

Recently took a road trip. Packed the 857, Z-11 PRO tuner, and a 102" CB whip. Made voice contacts like there was no tomorrow. all over the place.

Got home on sunday, and could hear noise as i approached my house. Figured it was the power line, since the power line goes over my driveway (and is off the end of my dipole.

So i set up another 40M dipole. This one was in free air, about 15 feet off the ground. One leg goes from my backyard to my front yard, the other across my backyard. It's an L shape, with a coax choke balun in the middle.

It seems i've still got all the noise. Turned everything in the house off and on....no luck. still have a loud static in the background. way more than mobile.

I'm hearing east coast stuff pretty good, specifically the ARRLHQ station.
I can't do 60M.
I can do 40m or 80m tho.
