I will try to have a listen on 21.060 over the coming weeks.<br /><br />I worked 'over the pond' on Saturday. I had a QSO with N1WPU in Stockton Springs, Me, gaining a 539 report from Ted. I was running a standard RockMite 20 on 14.058ish MHz at 264mW output to a 4 band vertical antenna! Milliwatting is great! 72 ColinColin M0CGHnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071048343455395511.post-65998438893221672002011-09-29T08:39:32.263+01:002011-09-29T08:39:32.263+01:00It is excellent fun bringing Russian, US, UK and o...It is excellent fun bringing Russian, US, UK and other hams worldwide together in a positive way. Nice to think that valves used in missiles aimed at each other in the Cold War end in bringing friendship and joy.

This type of work inspires me to keep learning CW, so that one day I can enjoy the simplicity and elegance of this sort of radio operation.<br /><br />Kind regards, David (G8JGO)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071048343455395511.post-5397392743377403292011-09-28T20:48:32.127+01:002011-09-28T20:48:32.127+01:00Good for all you Gentlemen!

Sorry I will use FT817 only (1 watt or 500 mW) to a simple wire antennas in home or suburban garden-house. Since I knew, some Russian QRPers prepared to operate in Sputnik Days. R3DAU and RN3AUS both assembled "Sputnikers" TXs using valves and xtals from Michael aa1TJ (TNX!) Other RU opeators will use any home brew or "firm" radios. Yuri UA1CEG will use old USSR military valve RX with inserted home made TRX-unit.<br />See you soon.
