[Elecraft] Phase noise

[S55M]

Eureka!

There is a voice over the ocean HI!
That's the pure truth what You are saying.
We are bothering normal majority of HAM's with some ("marginal" HI) things
wich are of interest of minority of geeks :) .
I am also using DB6NT transverters for 6 but centimeters and for 3
centimeters also HI. The new series of Michael transverters is really bullet
proof but also not so much cost effective :( .(IC7800 price is almost all my
annual income :( )
I am really happy with "Javornik" 14/144MHz using +23dBm mixer and has 2
converters wich are identical in preformance so You can use both recievers
in some HF radios at once.
Here is the polite question to Wayne and Eric and others from Elecraft to
maybe open another forum with pure technical stuff because deletting all the
messages wich are not of my interests is very time consuming for me and i am
shure my writing for the others is also.
Hope the voice will be suported and heard :) .

CU!
