1  eHam Forums / Contesting / RE: Ham for a month, and I hate contesters already. on: November 03, 2012, 10:00:29 AM
Some may say that contesting is a waste of the bands but if you listen to hf on weekdays it's nothing but small talk and ragchew, which isn't that important either. If that's what your into VHF is a great spot for that.

Hi! I am also i ham at 13 years old. I currently own a used ts-530s bought for $300. Many of similar price are available. Also check out the hendricks qrp kits. They have SSB rigs for as low 120 dollars.

I am using an MFJ-911 4:1 current balun and it is located(protected from water) at the base of the tree holding up a 52' wire dipole connected with 450ohm ladder line.

I am a new ham with little experience and recently discovered the screw on my balun labeled "ground". My SWR as been a constant 3:1 and I was wondering how much a ground system could help.

I am a new and young ham and think the best way to attract new hams is to change things around often instead of having the same nets and events repeatedly. To contribute to this my brother(kd2ajn) and I started a game net recently.

Early in the morning and around rush hour are busiest, also many people wait for someone else to say something before they speak. You can often get a response by asking a question but I have found that CQ does not really get much.
