Comments:
Thanks for the QSO's.
Minor antenna issues - intermittent SWR on the vertical after running. Would
normalize after a 5-10 minute rest with S/P.
Rig: Elecraft K4D
Antenna: Force 12 Magnum 160 VX2 vertical, 400 ft NE Beverage
Amp: Acom 2000a
The K4D continues to impress me with noise handling, weak CW signal operations
and selectivity. Stations could be 200-300 Hz away and not be crowding my
passband with 150 Hz filtering. The very narrow APF of 30 Hz worked amazingly
well for weak signals in this contest. Diversity receive off the vertical +
Beverage was extremely helpful and just cool!
