Signals were good last night on the 3570 net with Ted W3PWW as NCS.
It was a pleasure to hear a BC-610 on the air keyed by John W4HWT. I
usually try to get on with something different but it was hard to beat
Dale KW1I when he got on with his GRC-106 operating from his truck. I
can just picture Dale out in the back yard hunkered down in the dark and
keying the set. I have never worked a GRC-106 on CW before and noted
that it has a real punch to it with very sharp-crisp keying and of
course it helps as Dale sends slow enough for me to copy every word.
My rig this time was an R-390A transceiver. Using the superb VFO(PTO) of
the R-390A to drive the T784 transmitter(GRC-109) in transceive. Photo
and link below. Works very well. Details can be found at :
