[K3PZN-List] Ready to roll for FD (Field Day Triplexer loan available from WX3B)

[Peter Morton]

If simultaneous co-band operation, CW and SSB, is desired on 20 meters, 
I can bring a K3/P3 in lieu of the FTdx3000.  What rig is being used for 
CW on 20 meters?

Might bring both so a comparison can be made.  Results would be interesting!

There was zero interference between the 3 stations on the same antenna; in fact the only interference recorded at our site was from the 20m SSB position which interfered with us on 20cw due to spacing that was too close, and the FTDX-3000 which is known to generate measurable phase noise.  If you can put 500 feet between 20cw and 20ssb, and do not beam through the CW station, that problem should not be repeated.  This is one easy way to get a big signal on 3 HF bands at once!  If there is any interest, please email me.

I myself would put these onto the same mast -- as we have Dunestar filters to provide extra margin - and the rig filters are almost good enough to function on their own (a K2 and FT950 or FT3000 did just fine when they were on different bands.  (Jim and Rob were even going to trying sharing a beam with a triplexer - but I am not so brave without a lot of patient testing!  I honestly don't suggest this.  )
