Re: chat
Hi Dave,
its a fine chat as well,
I as i said use xat, which is linked to a few other sites,
This has its own problems as you cant always tell where the visitor is coming from ,
Just today i banned a member from 79 division who was spamming members in private asking for radios, mic's or antennas , coming out with a fairy tale about being a poor student and even telling 1 member he had cancer.
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

Re: chat
....aaaand that excludes them from hanging around with the rest of us free thinking folk ??? Don’t tell me they’ve all become “Rule Follwers” ?
How sad. Give someone a piece of paper and they somehow change.....coffee tastes the same. Beer is how I remember it....who knows :-)

Re: chat
I'm still here! Not much activity on EC but as I'm stuck in a flat for a few months, I don't suppose I'm missing anything much.

Re: chat
I 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

Re: chat
My 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.

Re: chat
Did 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

Re: chat
It'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.

Re: chat
The 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
