Hi.
I'm new to this list (but not to radio).
During the past month I put an "AM/CW Boatanchor Station" consisting of a
Viking Ranger transmitter and Hammarlund HQ-110 receiver, on the air, mostly
on 10M AM. I've just recently overhauled these items and have been enjoying
10M AM quite a bit, really the first AM operation I've gotten involved in
I also have a nice little Icom IC-718 transceiver for the more mundane tasks
of SSB etc ;-)
Actually, the purpose of this post is to see if anyone knows what the
expected 10M prop looks like over the next week? With a little luck I may
be able to spend a little extra time hamming. I still need Nevada and Utah
on 10M too 8^) In nearly 10 years of operations (last 3 not very active)
those two have eluded me and guess I'm too close.
Primary 10M antenna is a roof mounted Hustler 6BTV vertical over 1200 Sq/ft
of sheetmetal roof. Secondary is a half sized G5RV inverted Vee that
"might" be a bit of a "skywarmer" on 10M.
73 from the "Beaconeers Lair".
