LA7VHF/B 70.081

X-Flare

50 and 70 MHz
very strong ES   single  hop  already early morning
worked some time at 50 beam north North-East hoping for  extension to JA  but mostly backscatter signals and  single hop ES.  Also
50051   LA7SIX  Bardu            JP99EC  30 4-el Yagi  190o A1    24   0612
heard at 50.0508
and many many EU beacons
Pity that not at least a part of those beacons  are converted to WSPR   :-(


Then  later switched to 4M  heard LA7VHF JP99LQ at 70.0808 MHz

deep QSB
http://www.qsl.net/pa0oos/recall/la7vhf_4m.mp3
 70MHz
I heard ES Estonia working EA8BPX  that is >4000km 70MHz
Later in evening D44 and CT3  where spotted

Meanwhile  the low band propagation is real in summer state.

160m Last weeks not a single EU decode >4000   no VK or W/VE  or 5Z/VK1UN decode
 160 DX-index zero.

80M is a bit better few decodes by VK7DIK seen last week
last 24 hours   8 decodes  by VK6DZ
no VK3 or VK7
Just checked my N1MM log missing the last entry  OY1CT   Again N1MM had CAT errors frequency display wild into red zone..  clearing the entry call field  when random QSY -ing  had to "reset interface more then once and restarted N1MM also to get it under control.
this spot was send by N1MM after QSO  I could find it back in http://www.dxsummit.fi/Search.aspx
This happens to me more then once ... now I can complete  the log because I knew I worked OY1CT .
This case I also could have forgotten to press ALT+ENTER to log the QSO not sure..

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...

BIJZEN mast en ontwerp fouten.

In 2013 heb ik een Bijzen aluminium mast 3 x7m  opgehaald  bij iemand die hem niet mocht plaatsen Gemeente Oss  dat zegt misschien al genoeg.. Pas in 2018 heb ik hem geplaatst had ik veel eerder moeten doen. Mooie mast, mijn xyl vond hem zelfs mooi. Hij is licht, de 3 delen wegen  235kg  het vaste deel 102kg dus het te lieren gedeelte weegt   slechts 133kg + ca 50kg rotor + antennes etc.  De elektrische lier is wel erg zwaar 30kg misschien wel maar die zit onder    Antenne  3ele Steppir  19kG  +  G2500DXC rotor: 3.6kg  + rotorbuis 12 kg  +  kabels 10kg  + 5/7 ele 6m beam. ongeveer 50kg Je moet niet te dichtbij  kijken, dan valt op dat het Aluminium lastwerk heel slordig is gedaan, scherpe bramen aan de lassen waar kabels door kunnen worden beschadigd of haken Er is zeer ! weinig ruimte voor de rotor een YAESU G2500DX past net maar dan ook net  met beetje buigen van  kruisverband. Het...
