Hello EME Friends,
I wish all of you a very good contest and hope to work some of you.
I am not able to be qrv all the time, but the time left will be in the
shack.
In one leg at least I will try to be qrv with my 'new' old line consisting
of an Yaesu FT-107M and FTV-107 transverter, so to work with a
retro setup in the good old CW mode. I removed the SSB SP2000
preamp and to my surprise I can hear now eme signals from
3 degrees to moon set, which was before not possible. It seems the
SP2000 degraded my receive at low elevation angles. The transverter
is in respect to it's age receiving quite well. The limitation of this setup
is the drive power to the amp, so output will be between 200 and 250 W.
For receive I will use also my FT100, so to have real stereo audio and
I am quite interested how this dual receive helps in digging the sigs out
of the noise.
I wish all GL and lots of fun !!!!!
