Good advice. Any recommendations for a 500 Khz antenna?
Sure. Just wait till after the boom. If the power is out, just hook up to the electric lines coming into your house--if its still there, that is. *Some of us ,use QRP rig's powered from batteries or by the sun ;I suggest you try it, it's fun.* Note: here is some info 500 khz antenna www.kluw.com/home.htm |

If a nuclear exchange comes: (1) if there's a President left, who (2) has communications and cares what bands you use, and (3) electromagnetic pulse--EMP--hasn't fried your transceiver, and (4) you haven't been incinerated, and (5) you have power, food, and water, then (6) you can operate any darn where you please, since the FCC isn't going to worry about issuing you a NOV. Besides, how is anybody on eHam going to know the answer?
I'm sorry, but that was a very, very silly question--"Big Nuclear booms Come" indeed. Humpf!
So, if big nuke goes boom boom, I talk talk anywhere I want. Maybe the ARRL will have a new "Worked All Nuked States" Award for the wall in my shack?

LOL! That is true. But the real question is... What will the effect of so many nuclear explosions have on the ionosphere? Will it alter the MUF? Improve or hamper skip conditions on all the bands? Remember, the sun is just one huge nuke, and just look at what it can do to our communications from 93,000,000 miles away!  Just drop down to 600 meters, and your problem is solve, better get a antenna now.We will get an allocation a round 500 Khz this year. |
