Just to confirm Bryce's comments , I had a PCR-1000 that went deaf because
of static buildup on a long wire. The local agents chief technician was away
on a d-expedition but when he got back things moved. About six components
had blown and were replaced. I gave them a copy of the EX2099 program
(written by IBM by the way) and the rig was realigned. Total cost just under
R400 or about $35. I now use an Italian made discone that has quite a high
bandwidth and is adequate for APRS etc. signals from satellites but still
suffers from static build-up when we have an electrical storm in the offing.
Talk PCR is the favoured software and I'm hoping there's an upgrade in the
offing.
