[Howell, Laurence J]

Well I do a bit Mike with Solar but our "mains"  line feed is all hydro electric from a local (small) lake dam.

 We are kinda light on rain up here and "dry lightning" giving us some 90 wild fires in State at the moment - so even Alaska hasn't escaped the QRN - the interior given the heat and mountains can produce some crackers of towering Queue Nim...

I ran the tx for a few days at around 100W and and all very docile - Tee vertical was stable though the normal diurnal chnages in tuning. Small fan to keep the heatsink flat cool and pleased that the reference osc the Epson would be good enuf after a div by ten for Qrss 20 or maybe more.

I didn't rx any reports but thanks that tried. My field strength is down a couple of dBs at 50 miles, and this reflects the larger summer time leafy sappy losses I'm supposing...

You make your own electricity up there?
