Quote You'd give up fishing after catching one of each species of fish from the same body of water? In "The Complete DXer", W9KNI addressed this very dilemma. In my early edition, I think unsatisfactorily. He must have agreed that what he wrote there wasn't enough, because he later was the driving force behind the creation of the DX Marathon, an annualized DXCC plus WAZ competition. That idea seems to have worked for him (he won in several categories) and lots of DXers who turn in logs seem to agree with him. But even he didn't think about trying to re-work a couple of thousand band slots every year. |

If I operated the rig at medium power I assume that there would be no problem. However one website stated that the voltage from the lighter jack might be as low as 10.2 vdc which would be too low. Any comments appreciated. Thanks 73, Bruce K6RQR |

I agree with the Dacron suggestion. I have plenty of squirrels and they don't bother it at all- maybe it tastes bad.
The Mastrant 4 mm from DX Engineering is guying my push up mast with hexbeam--it is very strong. Another option is Quality Nylon Rope company who sells Dacron rope on Amazon. The 3/16" is about $45 for a 500 foot roll. Davis Rope company is yet another option. Check Davis Rope website. I'm sure there are other sources as well. No affiliation with any of them, just had success with them over the years. GL, John, KB1NO |

You'd give up fishing after catching one of each species of fish from the same body of water?As there are very few of us who have “caught all the fish”, you are talking about a very small set of hams which aren’t the guys trying to work a station multiple times or multiple bands and multiple modes. We aren’t the problem here. As for me, I work my friends, participate on a net, listen a lot and occasionally call someone calling CQ who is someplace which interests me. Everyone is different but we are talking about a wider issue here. |

Put in only minutes after they opened up OQRS. Impressive! This puts me over the top for DXCC Challenge 2500. (I still need my pending paper application to clear and then one more LOTW application, but that will do the trick). |
