PJ6D worked on 6 m

I had 160/80m WSPR mode running this week when in Germany for QRLthe lows band having a hard time for DX now.At 160m A45SWL sometimes decodes me.  80m little better T61AA  and VK7DIK few times. I had no internet access in the hotel i went to a nice cafe but even there access was slow i could not control wspr remote some evenings.


Friday evening back home switched to 6m  wspr  but nothing heard.
Then saw KP4EIT spots from ON/ south PA 50.110 did not hear him.
PJ6D was reported 50.106  QSX up 2
After some time hearing only calling stations suddenly  a clear signal from PJ6D came in! woow DX

Could work him after some time. Then he became  even a bit loud here in JO33hg
He was working into KN78 ! 
One SV was complaining  about not hearing..  I could not feel real sorry for him  I was thinking  pay your bills first. I know that is not fair  but I could not help..
And thought about being  born in Greece.. I would be retired some 15 years now all the time in the world to work DX ...
PJ6D Saba Island not a new DXCC but now a special community  of  The Netherlands.  PJ6D

Inderdaad Jaap, misschien een beetj politiek getint. Maar zo is het wel. Waarom moeten wij al die gepensioneerde grieken gaan betalen? Laat ze maar wat den voor de kost. Maar goed, niet alle grieken kunnen er wat aan doen. Vergeet de rijkste scheepsmagnaten van de wereld niet, de in hun eigen land geen belasting betalen. Ik snap niet hoe het allemaal in elkaar steekt, maar wat mij betreft zetten ze dit soort landen direct uit de EU. Mooie DX overigens, zou er binnenkort wat meer op WSPR te doen zijn? 73, Bas

2011-01-22 DIAMOND 2m 70cm 1m30 Colinear inside

Having relative poor signals on the local 70cm / 2m channels using this X50 Diamond collinear 70/2  1m antenna at a height of 25m. I needed to investigate what could be wrong. Measuring the cable only 3W is left for the antenna of the 10W 435MHz output from a IC451E The cable is 30m type H100 Z50 10mm outside diameter it is semi air-spaced but has an impossible 4mm² solid CU inner conductor not much air left. I preferred the H43 Z75 cable having lower loss and mechanical better ratio in conductor size. My antenna uses SO239 connector UHF type semi air spaced isolator.  3W should be enough for a comfortable noise free FM signal. But only 27km away at PA0A the signal is weak too weak something must be wrong? I made a simple reference dipole of 2x17cm CU wire. With this dipole the signals where totally worse. So the Diamond does work? I got curious to look inside. Maybe moisture penetration degraded the antenna. This  antenna is rainwater close in its n...

SPF5189z Low noise preamp 23cm

 14-4-2018 updated Above the low noise  preamp 50 - 4GHz    ebay  6€ Tested  2 small porto antennas 1 Baofeng UV antenna left   2nd best signal on PI2NOS 2 eBay DIAMONDSRH805S  wide band 144/432/1200  it works for its size as expected 3 piece of wire :   best signal in the setup... Unit under test at workbench. It was stable  50mA  at 5V   few days,  but sudden the current went up to 100mA And i could  no longer adjust it with the negative bias Voltage. The - Voltage went to zero and the SPF input port became low Z. This SPF5189z was broken  no oscillations, no input overload just it broke while i was receiving the PI2NOS 430.125 using a small antenna at the workbench. The specs of  SPF5189z  say it has an internal circuit  regulating the bias current. Replaced . again   with an other of the 5 spare SPF i have. The new one again could be adjuste...

TS790 cat interface

A CAT interface  for the old TS790 144/432/1292 tranceiver to work with N1MM  including the internal CW keyer DTR and "PTT" RTS and WSJT MSHV with "PTT" control Using the 3€ FTDI USB serial interface picture bottom page first i bought the Kenwood USB serial interface cable that cable has the TS790 special 6 pin DIN plug this interface works well ...as long as you cut the 4-5  wire bridge on the ACC din.. with the wire bridge it did go offline after 30 seconds or so  Kenwood interface cable with CH330 eBay 15€    This type Kenwood interface cable uses a tiny 6 pin USB CH330 chip  The driver is CH340 known for Arduino it workes in W7/10 64  It has only TX RX Usart function no DTR RTS available  The TS790 settings are 4800b 8bit data 2 stop  default  N1MM does not list the TS790 it has the TS890  but that one does not support modes the TS2000 does support freq and modes and let you switch 2/70/23 it seem...
