You are so right. If one waits to long, they might not be able to get the things they need. I live in Northeastern PA. Its hard to find a store that has bleach/disinfectant. When i heard about this China virus i went out and picked up 2 reg old oral thermometers and a few more bottles of...

They havent lost electricity in China yet. I think we will be ok in that arena. If not, thats a whole different ball game. I like to keep the freezer full. In times like this, pork and chicken is cheap enough. Big pot of chicken soup goes a long way. Lots of canned veggies. Tea or coffee or...

You have my prayers too. Get well!

I believe something may be sinister with this new virus. We lose thousands to the "regular flu" yearly. If there is such thing as a regular flu. Never have i seen the reduction in air travel nor the quarantine of people/countries. For the flu? Just doesnt make sense. This outbreak scared China...

This whole thing has me confused. Why would China destroy there economy over a few thousand dead Chinese?

R.I.P.

Happy New Year all! I have a tripp lite inverter/charger that needs repair . Its a 1500 watt model. All the lights are flashing. It doesnt seem to want to charge, i think it switches over ok but i need to test it out further. Does anyone know of someone that will work on these? I was going to...

Wow! I feel so honored .

I had the tower on its side setting the antennas Lol, sounds great. We can roll with both!

Hey binrat, when is the next forum contest? Im ready to roll!

Hey fogdog. Little do you know that you were instrumental in mine and my bro-in-laws set-up. He is running a 7300 with the myantenna 80-10 also. As newly licensed hams, "NOT KNOWING SQUAT" I was following your posts trying to find a starting setup. His station and mine work great. Thank you and...

The tower is up. Oh boy. Did it in an ice storm. SPT500 on top set for 11 meter. My antennas ef-8010 set 5' below. Almost operational. Another day or two. Thanks to you all for all of the help past, present and future.

I agree, a lot to learn

Thank you for your reply. I know its probably a very novice question. I really dont know anything abou Thanks guys, i was looking at that very same unit on DX Engineering this morning. Can i use the dummy load with the mfj 872? Radio-watt meter-dummy load? Sorry for the novice questions.

I would like to buy a dummy load to test some of my radios but not sure what to get. Right now my capability is 6 to 160 meter and 100 watts. Ive seen all kinds of shapes and sizes, dry, oil, some with meters. I have a MFJ872 swr/watt meter. Just looking to be able to safely test my radios. Any...

Very nice. Next year , i would like to put up a Mosely. Ive been looking at the 33 jr. But for this winter im just looking to be operational.

Thank you again. I think i know now the direction im headed. SPT 500 on top of the tower for 11 meter. A99 on a chimney mount tuned for 10.

Thank you. Im looking for local mostly on 10 meter. Do you think having a vertical for 10 meter is redundant. I mean, should it perform better than the endfed? If not, i may tune the spt for 11 meter and put it as high as i can.

Hello everyone, its been a while. Ive been without comms all summer. There is a light though. Getting ready to pour the concrete for my tower. Its 34' tall with a 10 ' mast on top. i have a My antenna 80/10 that im going to run from it. But i would like to put one of my antennas on top. Now my...

I love harness racing. My brothers horses were, Spot Lights Delite, Mississippi Mud, Adios Butler. And several others. My brother is gone now but heres a story about him. He never married. Once i asked him why not. He said, what do i need to do that for, i do what i want, Hell i take my horses...
