It's been some years since i have popped in but after a operation and 2 bouts of covid i am well enough to revive the hobby. Today the shack is being resurrected after given over my original shack to my granddaughter as her Wendy house but i have been mobile a few times over the last few years. Yesterday i spoke with Scott 303 in Melbourne whilst sitting in my car on my driveway and it prompted me to convert a part of my garage into a radio room,wish me luck as i have lots to do today. Looking through here i see there are far less visits but i hope with cycle 25 waking up nicely let's hope for more activity. My Echo Charlie days are over but 11 metres is in my blood and for over 35 years i have always come and gone. To those who i have met here over the years hello again and to anyone i don't know hello also. 73 Sam 26FB012nondisclosed_email@example.com (cozzmik)Sat, 30 Sep 2023 08:03:20 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p28141,from=rss#post28141https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p28141,from=rss#post28141The board has been very quiet. I hope that’s because everyone is on the radio. Conditions have been very good here of late. Sadly circumstances and priorities have kept me off the air…for now. Maybe some portable operating now that the weather is warming up here in the antipodes nondisclosed_email@example.com (MrFidget)Fri, 29 Sep 2023 21:36:29 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p28047,from=rss#post28047https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p28047,from=rss#post28047It's back up now. Still really noisy at the QTH. I tried a loop on the ground but no improvement. Perhaps you do need to use a pre-amp. Just made myself a 11m T2LT to go with my SOTA Beams pole. Works rather well with RG-58. Going to see if I can get some portable operation before the weather gets worse. 73snondisclosed_email@example.com (King Willie)Sat, 21 Aug 2021 16:47:12 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p28044,from=rss#post28044https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p28044,from=rss#post28044Did you get it back up and running ?? I have my vertical working okish on 20 and 40. End fed half wave on 20 with a base loaded extension on top to get 40m. Not convinced it is a good as it should be Might go back to a magnetic loop. See how that fares for noise rejection nondisclosed_email@example.com (MrFidget)Tue, 03 Aug 2021 23:27:10 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p27950,from=rss#post27950https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p27950,from=rss#post27950My EFHF just collapsed due to the snow we're getting. I can't be bothered running outside in the dark to put it back up. EC has been a bit quiet lately, but I heard the French guys around 3.470 before the antenna fell down.nondisclosed_email@example.com (King Willie)Thu, 14 Jan 2021 23:58:00 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p27939,from=rss#post27939https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p27939,from=rss#post27939I feel for you They let us outside here at least. Bands have been much better of late. Been hearing Morse on 6668KHz around 12:00-13:00Z last three nights. Sounds like some net check in. Of note, the used a ..-- which is an accented U for Cyrillic languages. My CW skills are much better than this time last year when I decided that pounding brass might be a good skill to have for the coming CME and 5G zombie apocalypse :-) I need a better antenna. And less QRM/N from switching electronics nondisclosed_email@example.com (MrFidget)Thu, 07 Jan 2021 23:30:45 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p27916,from=rss#post27916https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p27916,from=rss#post27916I'm still here!

Spam is spam , no matter where it comes from , The user's call is 79lv898 Jotham , a number which was given to him quiet recently, so we know very little about him apart from he like to get gifts.. hi hi pat 29sd102nondisclosed_email@example.com (pat29sd102)Mon, 08 Nov 2010 15:53:37 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p15643,from=rss#post15643https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p15643,from=rss#post15643Hi Pat, too difficult with my chat. I built it myself using Frontpage and Access database, which has some advantages, but a host of disadvantages. One being the age of the software, which is why it only really works on IE. I do plane to "upgrade" it all, got a copy of W7 coming and a new FP version, so we'll see soon nondisclosed_email@example.com (yamanx1)Sun, 07 Nov 2010 15:20:48 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p15623,from=rss#post15623https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p15623,from=rss#post15623Why is this chat thread, not used more, Got Pat postin today, and the post before that was last year, lol.nondisclosed_email@example.com (26FB332)Fri, 05 Nov 2010 21:54:02 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p15621,from=rss#post15621https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p15621,from=rss#post15621Have you ever tryed to make your chat mobile dave, I use xat chat on my site and it can be got on most smart phones,. pat 29sd102nondisclosed_email@example.com (pat29sd102)Fri, 05 Nov 2010 21:48:17 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p8099,from=rss#post8099https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p8099,from=rss#post8099 same as 40 + 20, but 10 metres was alive for a change. made a couple of contacts but only euro france, norway etc nondisclosed_email@example.com (26fb010)Fri, 12 Jun 2009 06:17:00 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p8079,from=rss#post8079https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p8079,from=rss#post8079yes i think i heard you calling.was realy good conditions today we hope for some more soon hopefully it will stay active during the day,other bands 80m etc seem to be very bad atm,but 11m is good so we all happy hehe!nondisclosed_email@example.com (26fb555)Thu, 11 Jun 2009 16:31:12 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p8078,from=rss#post8078https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p8078,from=rss#post8078it was like the good old days today!! even did a bit of euro dx on FM mid band from my truck. great conditions.nondisclosed_email@example.com (26fb010)Thu, 11 Jun 2009 16:04:42 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p8076,from=rss#post8076https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p8076,from=rss#post8076morning,lots of dx on 27 today woohooo ,calling on 27555 good luck peoples.....nondisclosed_email@example.com (26fb555)Thu, 11 Jun 2009 06:59:12 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p4722,from=rss#post4722https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p4722,from=rss#post4722THANKS nondisclosed_email@example.com (26fb139)Tue, 23 Dec 2008 08:43:59 +0000 Re: chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p4693,from=rss#post4693https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p4693,from=rss#post4693CLICKY HERE FOR CHAT AND CLUSTER PAGE nondisclosed_email@example.com (yamanx1)Sat, 20 Dec 2008 13:01:39 +0000 chathttps://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p4692,from=rss#post4692https://bfreebandingtalktheplanet.runboard.com/p4692,from=rss#post4692any chance of putting the chat button some where Dave ?? maybe in a sticky so we don't have to keep searching for it. cheers idle 139 nondisclosed_email@example.com (26fb139)Sat, 20 Dec 2008 12:30:17 +0000
