HI Larry Nice to hear from you. Congratulations!. Yes Gary is doing a great job with the preamps, huge improvements . I am preparing some equipment's to PT0S DX expedition and George always comment about the work with Gary. George now has one preamp with 9 FET's in parallel.
You will get over 200 by the end of the next season. I'm sure about. With a good preamp and the WF tuned like you have, you can hear a third layer of DX not possible before Regards JCarlos N4IS -----Original Message----- From: Topband [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Monday, September 17, 2012 1:21 PM To: N4IS Jose Carlos; NX4D Doug Waller; [email protected] Cc: KD9SV Gary Nichols Subject: Topband: Small lot Carlos: I read you’re comments the Top Band reflector. While I have never operated any digital modes I have enjoyed some great success on 160 with much thanks to the rotatable WF. Much of the credit goes to you, NX4D and KD9SV. Without yours, Doug’s and Gary’s help I would have given up on 160, not to leave out W8UVZ, K8GG and W0CD. Gary has sent me several prototype preamps, each one better than the last. Without Gary’s help I would not have pulled NH8S out of the noise last week and worked them on 160. Or for that matter RI1ANF a few weeks ago. Currently I have 154 worked with 139 confirmed on 160 from a lot of 80’ X 100’. TNX Larry W8VVG _______________________________________________ UR RST IS ... ... ..9 QSB QSB - hw?
