Kasey worked on his lowfer last night and I think he got it dialed in. He
has found resonance using his variable loading coil and has matched his
impedance using 3 turns near the bottom of his loading coil as Mike
describes on the WM beacon update page from 2017. He now has right at a
watt to his PA.
I logged spectrum analyzer last night and all day today. At first there was
nothing, but around 2:50AM, KE showed up for about an hour. It did not
reappear until around 7AM and stayed there until sunset. His frequency was
187.2275 through the night and drifted down to 187.225 mid day when it was
warmer. Right before sunset it was back near 187.227. I suggested
installing the Mica caps he received from Jay and he said he would do that
this weekend.
Below is a capture from this morning around sunrise. I am appx. 150 miles
from KE.
