Morning Theo. Try a HL2 the noise reduction NR2 is another galaxy . 73's de ON8EI

59:32 thank you very much for QSO 73!

I've tried the V3 and it just isn't ready for prime time. V2 works perfectly in every respect. Just a small observation is that all the ICONS are very small and can't be scaled up. I tried every setting I could and it was very bad compared to V2. I had many other problems with it I won't go into but it needs more work.

Thank you for this, ive built one for a project at school. And i didn't realize you were supposed to tilt them so the tape is facing perpendicular to the ground, if i paid attention i probably wouldve noticed that. And in the simulated antenna clearly showed this but i wasn't paying attention. Thank you, this is my first foray into rf stuff!

Well done Theo, your beam and tilt mast look fantastic. A really great setup.

any links to this mast set up?

Amazing view and contruction from your hexs beam buddy, well done and good d.xing thanks for the video my friend 73's good luck, from paul all the way from🇧🇪belguim🇧🇪👌👍👏👏✌😊👍16.sd.114😊

That’s handy

Good job boys

Что с дисплеем у трансивера?

Ela Re - You need a Heil Headset 😂

Awesome Brother

What poles were used in that project ?

Maybe it’ll help noise floor. You got plenty of that

Geez, what a dirty and wide signal on 14.303. Do you know who that was?

Hi I have the clone is there software that links ?

Yikes!

Nice method.

Is someone gonna translate that morse code?

Hi there, are there fishing poles? Good job

🫠that my friend is gorgeous

How many watts were you running?Conditions this year from my latitude wasn't fantastic, the lower solar flux definitely made a negative impact on propagation on 10m. Heard more VK than previously though I believe. It's really a struggle with 100 watts on SSB frankly, hard to punch through with so many crazy strong stations. Hope to see you in CQ WPX CW? 73 DE LB1TI / LC9A.

Hi Theo, How are you? Please, How many elements Yagi antenna have? 73, Antonio - PY5AB.

Did you use a voice keyer at all during the WPX for calling CQ? My voice wouldn't have lasted constant CQ-ing. John VK5JAK (contesting as VK5Y)

Nice video mate 👍

There is a free program called “Morse Runner” you can use to increase your skills. It interfaces with N1MM so you can practice off the air with your N1MM logging software. As a beginning contester and one who is restoring my CW proficiency from years of neglect, I really appreciate “Morse Runner” so I don’t have to drag the other contesters through my entire learning curve. Our goal should be to head copy the incoming callsign the first time, only asking for repeat if QRM, QRN, or QSB interferes. If you are transmitting at a rate of 26 WPM, you need to be able to head copy that rate. If you cannot, slow down your transmit rate until you can. This lets other contesters know so they can slow down. The contest exchange will be much faster at lower CW rate than it is with the large number of repeats.

Great job !

Kudos for hanging in there with the qrp station

Great to be a guest in your shack, Theo. Hopefully we can go on a frequency together soon and call CQ DX. 73!

You been practicing

Odlično 73

Awesome

Wow amazing 😍

Nice one

Super patent

Super rozwiązanie

Good job on the build, but might want to find alternative to zip ties as the UV will make them brittle

Nice contact! That "999" on the display shows you are driving the rig into clipping. I've been studying the relatively poor TX audio quality of these rigs and that modulation indicator helps keep the distorted SSB audio a little bit more intelligible. Have you listened to your own audio on a separate receiver? How is it? Mine is terrible. 73,

Man you have some horrid noise there for sure

And what was the antenna like?

where is the objective evidence that you decoded the callsigns correctly? Seems like you can enter anything you like

I got one so I can use a Corsair HS50 headset with my Icom IC-718. Had to get a "Y" splitter so I can plug the headphones into both the headphone jack and the mic jack of the radio (otherwise only the mic works and no sound from the phones).

Please, in this CQWW CW (2023) look for South America. Thanks!

Thanks for video and super LP QRP qso, best 73 de F4VPC

Heard no VK at all here except I believe Saturday morning on 10m (calling another station). All of the bands were so packed. Solar storm hit us and the polar paths closed pretty much entirely by mid Saturday. For CQ WW SSB the bands are so packed we inherently QRM each other.. This is why I now prefer CQ WW CW.. It's interesting to see how little activity there is on 20m on your side of the globe, 20m was jam packed here every 1-1.5 kHz. What sort of antenna were you using? Must be hard with all those static crashes from lightning.. 73 DE LB1TI / LC9A.

what radio are you using?
