We enjoyed a relatively clear frequency but had to QSY at one stage,
probably losing Stewart G3RXQ in the process. David MM0XDG's newly
completed K3 (some 30 minutes prior to joining us) sounded very good.
Topics included: N1MM and other logging programs, why bother with
modifications at all?, factory fitted AF mod vs. field fitted version
(new K3 has the RFC on top of the board), connecting a Linear Amp UK
amplifier to a K3 (make sure the TX delay is long enough to cope with
slow relays), problems with intermittent operation caused by cutting the
TCXO leads too short (instructions wrong?) and locating buried antenna
cable with divining rods.
Stations were:
G4LWA, Alan
G0MJW, Mike
MM0XDG, David
GM0ELP, Doug
G0VGS, Ian
G3RXQ, Stewart
GM3SEK, Ian
EI6IZ, Brendan
M1KAZ, Andrew
73 until next week.
Dave, G4AON
K3/100 #80, Acom 1000, dipole
