Hey Brian, I thought you were going to build one yourself??? : )
Weren’t you saving the parts for one??? Anyways, I think the
strong local can give you problems, according to the book that
can be a problem. But you can have several work arounds for this
one of course cuts down on your sensitivity. There are other ways
to work around that problem too, T notch filter and such.
1. Attenuate
2. Less Regen
3. filters
I’m sure there are others, like ‘not' except-able quiet times : )
Usually from what I hear, when there is a will, there is a way…
I’m now on chapter three of THE Book : ), and this has been
addressed. There are a couple of other ways to deal with strong
locals, but I won’t go into that right now : ) Nah, just kidding, but
most of the time gentlemen’s agreements can come into play.
Most hams don’t live in their shack, so they have to shut down
once in a while : )
Back to that filter, it looks as tho it will help overcome your local
interference, I do know I don’t plan on taking mine out for field
day activities. I took an older rig out for field day once maybe a
dozen or more years ago, for the fun of it, and found out rather
quickly that it was useless : )
73 fer now
