Waiting for dawn in Warwickshire
Just chilling…
Big job today and I was dreading it – but we finally got the extension fitted to the 4-inch (actually 110mm) underground pipe and then into the Coax Cabinet – and pulled the 11 cables through. Next up, Cable exit, Rotator controllers and Genius Switches – and a ton of coax.
Just chilling…
We made this element a couple of weeks ago. 5m (about 20-ft) at heighest point coming down to 1m (3-ft) off the ground. 19.5m (64-ft) total length for a tune at 3.7MHz with more than 200kHz bandwidth. If you want say 3.8MHz and above in USA (say), aim for 61-ft. Deploy and test! Callum.

Morning Ham Radio DX Choices
If you get up really early you can either switch on the radio – or take the dog out. I do both!
This time I brought TS-590SG, 700W Amplifier, 100Ah battery, Victron Charger, DX Commander Expedition, laptop, cameras, interconnects, USB hub, broken coax, Pro 7 headset, spare patch leads and more. I must be bonkers.
