SSB Net results (1/18/09)

Phil and Christina

We held the SSB net this morning (1800Z on 14316 kHz).  There were 16 of us
in total (3 more than last week) over about 30 minutes.  We had some
interesting questions asked, with some answers.

Here is a list of the participants:

Station Name QTH Rig S/N

AE5JD Bart TX K3 2106
W3NF Lloyd MD K3
K0ARO Kurt IA K3
K8MBY Phil OH K3 609
W1JGS Joe MA K3
K4GCJ Gerry NC K3 1597
VE3QF Tony ONT K3 137
WB2ART Ken NY K3
W9DVM Phil FL K3
AB2TC Ken NY K3 82
AC7AC Ron OR K3
W3FPR Don NC K3
NE5W Ben TX K3 439
K1ZG Dave MA K3
N1LQ David MA K3 371
NS7P Phil OR K3 1826

I thought that I might have heard KB1TOM, but I could not get confirmation
of it.  Interestingly, there were three stations from the Boston area and
three Phils (well that is intersting to the Phils, HIHI).
Thanks to everybody.

73,

Phil, NS7P

Unfortunately, propogation to the west coast was almost non existent. Heard a few stations but unable to be heard.

Elecraft SSB Net results (1/25/09)

Phil and Christina
In reply to this post by Phil and Christina

We held the SSB net this morning (1800Z).  An ongoing QSO on 14316 caused us
to move up 3 kc to 14319 kHz.  Thank you to those who put the frequency
change on the reflector.  My apologies to those who missed the QSY.  The
signals from most of the country were fairly good to the net control in
Oregon (S6 to S9+).  There were a couple of PNW stations that got missed
however.  Next week we will look harder for relays.  One that we think we
pulled through at the end is W7BRS.  Jeff was that you?  Counting W7BRS,
there were 23 of us in total (7 more than last week) over about 25 minutes.

Here is a list of the participants:

It seems like we are doing better each week.  Thanks to everybody who
checked in.  It is great hearing all of the K3s.

Elecraft SSB Net results (2/1/09)

Phil and Christina
In reply to this post by Phil and Christina

We had a good SSB net today (1800Z) on 14.316 MHz. The signals from most of
the US and Canada were fairly good to the net control in
Oregon (S6 to S9+).  Three WA/OR stations needed relay to me.  Some stations
report that they could not hear many others or that the signals were low.
Conditions are such that those running higher power (over 500 watts) like
the NCS are OK, but those who are barefoot are close to the noise for many
stations.  We continue to grow with 34 participants today, and there were a
number of good questions and comments.  We ran about 55 minutes today.

Here is a list of the participants:

Station Name QTH Rig S/N

KM5Q Windy NM K3 764
W8FU Bruce OH K3 2516

I didn't hear much of the QSO from here in WA. I did hear a handful of
check-ins from the mid to eastern US though. I also didn't catch the call of
the relay that helped me in, so "thanks" for the help! :)

Elecraft SSB Net results (2/15/09)

In reply to this post by Phil and Christina
We had another good SSB net today (1800Z) on 14.316 MHz.  We had 24
participants today, and there were a
number of good questions and comments.  The topics discussed included
compression settings and voice quality,
optimized RX EQ settings, ATU functions and other issues.  Several stations
got real time feedback on voice quality
that helped them set their compression levels.  Conditions were not great,
with many stations being weaker to net control than usual; and several
stations reported hearing few participants.
On the other hand, we had two check-ins from Alaska this week (one was even
mobile).

We started a few minutes early and ran about 45 minutes today.  Here is a
list of the participants:

Elecraft SSB Net results (2/22/09)

Phil and Christina
In reply to this post by Phil and Christina
We had a good turn-out for the SSB net today (1800Z) on 14.316 MHz, even
though most signals were down from what they have been in previous weeks.
Most stations were S5/6, but there were a few up to S9.  There were also
some near the noise level, and there was also a lot of QSB.  The surprise
highlight was ZL1PWD checking in from New Zealand into the back of the net
control's quad.  Peter was weak but there.  We had good discussions about
headsets in use or recommended.  There was also interest in hearing if
anyone new of progress/launch dates for the Elecraft high power amps and pan
adapter.  We ran about 40 minutes today.

Here is a list of the 28 participants:

Station Name QTH Rig S/N

Elecraft SSB Net results (3/1/09)

Phil and Christina
We had a good turn-out for the SSB net today (1800Z) on 14.316 MHz, and most
of the signals were good to net control.  However, some stations reporting
hearing few others.  The skip may be too long for many eastern or midwestern
stations to hear each other well.  Peter, ZL1PWD, checked in from New
Zealand for the second week in a row.  Peter was weak but there (into the
back of my Quad).  We had good discussions about the merits of the second
receiver in the K3 and audio quality.  We ran about 26 minutes today.

Here is a list of the 29 participants:

Station Name QTH Rig S/N

report from W. Texas
only station I heard clearly (S8) was one of the 4's
not sure which one it was,
but he changed the # of which rig he was operating from,
there was a big heterodyne on freq from a signal about 2 kc away
so any copy was poor since my K2 has no notch filter.

I tried asking for a relay a couple of times, but no response.

Re: Elecraft SSB Net results (3/1/09)

Phil and Christina
Sam and others,

Sorry to those who tried but were unable to check in.  We may need a more
systematic relay approach to help us through the strange differential
propagation conditions we are experiencing.  Some hear others well and some
don't.  I will be looking at a second antenna here (maybe just for receive,
maybe both).  Keep trying.  If anyone who hears most stations wants to stick
around for the entire net to help relay in others, that would be great.
Thanks,

73,

Phil, NS7P

Elecraft SSB Net results (3/15/09)

Phil and Christina
In reply to this post by Phil and Christina

We had a good turn-out for the SSB net today (1800Z) on 14.316 MHz,
considering the somewhat poor band conditions.  However, some stations
reporting
hearing few others.  There was also a mini DX pileup caused by TO2T about
1.6 kHz below us that caused QRM in the latter part of the net.  The main
topic of discussion was the K3 mod that requires cutting some main PCB
traces, even though the sub receiver errata mentions it.  There is some
confusion about what this mod is for, etc.  There was also interest in what
Elecraft may announce at Visalia and some discussion about the EQP that just
ended.

Here is a list of the 23 participants:

Station Name QTH Rig S/N

N1LQ Dave MA K3 371
W4WFB Roy NC K2 2225
N1LN Bruce NC K3 1193
KE4WY Jim KY K3 2165

Elecraft SSB Net results (3/22/09)

Phil and Christina
In reply to this post by Phil and Christina
We had a good turn-out for the SSB net today (1800Z) on 14.316 MHz,
including Eric, WA6HHQ, and Don, W3FPR.  Most of the signals were good to
net control, but some stations just can't hear each other.  WH6S, Richard,
checked in from Hawaii with a strong signal on the back of my beam.

We had good discussions about distortion/feedback and the indicated mods for
the K3.  There was also some discussion about an upcoming revised DSP PCB
that will help with low frequency audio response.  Eric was there to
enlighten us.  We ran about 34 minutes today.  The net control station,
NS7P, will not be available to do the net next Sunday.  We are looking for a
volunteer.  It isn't difficult as long as you are positioned to hear most of
the country and have a reasonably strong signal.  Feel free to put your name
forward.

Here is a list of the 25 participants:

Station Name QTH Rig S/N

K8MBY Phil OH K3 609
K8DJC Nelson OH K3 560
W2RWA Dick NY K3 2603

Elecraft SSB Net results (4/5/09)

Phil and Christina
We had a short and sparse SSB net today (1800Z) on 14.316 MHz.  The signal
levels were down, and not very many stations were heard.  Only a CO and AZ
station were 59 or better in OR.  Most were 56 or less, and several that I
usually hear well were at or below the noise level.  We had only 14
participants including net control and ran for only 17 minutes.  After the
check-ins stopped, we had very little discussion (a few antenna comparison
transmissions and interest in an Elecraft panadapter).

Mark, K4SO, volunteered to be a back up net control.  Thank you, Mark.

Here is a list of the 14 participants:

Station Name QTH Rig S/N

K4SO Mark VA K3 2861
W2RWA Dick NY K3 2603
AB2TC Ken NY K3 82
W1TF Ty GA K3 696
K4GCJ Gerry NC K3 1597
W1XV Brad NH K3 178
AI4VZ George GA K3 2412
KB0YH Gus CO K3 441
W5ION Doug TX K3 2659
KB9AVS Steve IN K3 2443
N9YKE Don WI K3 2505
AC7OY Bill AZ Hallicrafters Cyclone
W8FU Bruce OH K3 2516
NS7P Phil OR K3 1826

Thanks to everybody who checked in.  Have a good week.

Re: Elecraft SSB Net results (4/12/09)

Phil and Christina
We had a short and sparse SSB net again today (1800Z) on 14.316 MHz.  The
signal levels were down, and not very many stations were heard.  We had only
13
participants including net control and ran for only 18 minutes.  Attribute
that to the holiday and very weak conditions.  Discussions were on AGC
settings, Visalia rumors and filter offset impact to audio quality.
Remember that N1LQ is looking for posts to the reflector on AGC settings
used for different modes, etc.

Here is a list of the 13 participants:

Station Name QTH Rig S/N

N1LQ Dave MA K3 371
KM5Q Windy NM K3 764
K4GCJ Gerry NC K3 1597
KB0YH Gus CO K3 441
K4SO Mark VA K3 2861
KV5E Rob TX K3 1417
AD5SX Paul NM Ten Tec Jupiter
KH7C Merv HI K3 2306
VA7OJ Adam BC Icom
KA0NCR Arnie NE K3 185
W6JDB Jay CA K3 1288
WE0H Mike MN K2 6698
NS7P Phil OR K3 1826

Thanks to everybody who checked in.  Have a good week.
