So, I just put up a Sirio Tornado a few weeks back and worked Japan, Australia and Brazil in addition to tons of southern US stations. This past weekend, I left my radio on (just receive) for about 8 hours and when I came back, the first time I keyed up the radio (AM) was down on the meter from...

I have had my Icom 7200 for a year now, and would like to put up something like in the shack. (This is a local 45 Kilo, who has his streaming live on YouTube most of the time. I believe he's on one of the islands in Puget Sound. My 7200 has a USB connector in the back, so all I really need to...

In the Greater Seattle we have the "Old Timer's SSB Net" at 6:30PM local on channel 16. Must be a 23 channel SSB rig or a tube rig. 10-20 people a week fire up for it!

Here in Seattle we have a dedicated group of SSBers every Saturday night at 7PM. The Puget Sound 11m SSB net meets on channel 40LSB and there is a net control! We get 40-50 people a week checkin in from all over Western Washington.
