Base Q about Sirio

[Greg T]

Can someone clarify this for me?

• 1000 Watts (CW) continuous, 3000 Watts (CW) short time

Is that 1000 continuous like an AM carrier? Or is that PEP??

 

[Crawdad]

The 3kW would be PEP.

7 3

Thanx! I don't know why these companies can't use terms we know.

 

[Crawdad]

I have some wonderful solutions for 140' point to point. It's just that not everyone has trees, towers, flagpoles ...

I don't. I have a garage at the rear of the property, but nothing in the front but grass and sidewalk. At one time I had considered a full wave dipole, but them I'd have to drive a pole in the ground in the front yard. LOL.

Perfect. Put some plastic clothespins on it and tell the neighbors it's a clothesline.

I don't care about the neighbors. No HOA here. But we do have a few kids in the hood and I'm not sure I can trust them to leave it alone. But I've always had this idea abut a full wave. Don't know why.
