With my 7300 I use a standard USB cable and a CAT control cable which is USB to
CAT control port on the radio. I need two cables, one gets assigned to com port
4 and the other to com port 5. One com port is for logging and the other for

If you are trying to build an end feed half wave (EFHW) antenna, the length is
in the name. A half wave at 40m is ~66 feet. Start with 67 feet and fold back
the end until you get a good SWR. You need a 49:1 transformer on one end to
get the impedance down to 50 ohm and to connect your coax. Min
Please provide more info on the Fox hunt. What time(s), who can participate,
