I got aggravated while operating SSTV on 14.233. A SSB signal appeared and it was distorted and WIDE 12KC wide at least. I finally found the frequency of the offender. I asked "OM, do you know just exactly how wide and distorted your signal is?" Yeah, I know it's wide, But, This rig was built in the 1950's and I have NO intentions of spending the money to fix it or invest the time required to fix. 'Don't like it that's just too Bad "Buzz off."
You think that's bad? I was in LA on the W6NUT repeater, and I told a ham that his audio was a little distorted. He told me to fork off, and began playing music for the next half hour!!! |

I believe there is a computer program that can help you get rid of the echo, but you will need to digitalize the recording.

I ran a FT-2900 on a 15 amp power supply. One night on 75 Watts high power, the supply went pufft and caused a surge which took out the radio's overload circuit. Fortunately the radio was only a few months old, so Yaesu fixed it for free. I tossed the supply and got a new Jetstream 30 amp switcher, and all is now well.

eHam Forums / Antenna Restrictions / RE: Remote operation option?

www.remotehams.com has a few stations (although these are free, I believe). What would the purpose of 2m/440 remote be? Weak signal DX? or EME? That would be a different situation if the remote station is a different grid than the operator, for award purposes. Well it could help if one's QTH was at the bottom of a valley, or surrounded by large hills and/or mountains. |
