          Welcome to the seventh exciting, thrill-packed issue of Condo
          Communicator, a newsletter devoted to those amateurs who, for
          various reasons, must configure their stations to operate from
          restrictive areas such as condos, apartments, townhouses,
          neighborhoods with outdoor antenna restrictions, ships/boats,
          mobile homes, or wherever they fry their burgers and call QTH.

          It's been a while since issue #6.  I've been pretty busy with
          work, not to mention getting a new QRP transmitter working
          (mostly) and just plain operating on the air.  And, uh, my dog ate
          the issue I was writing.  Y-e-a-h, *that's* what happened.

          SOAPBOX

          You would think that the challenge in operating from restricted
          space would be in the HF part of the spectrum.  After all, the
          antennas are large and you have to run a lot of power to be heard,
          right?  Evidently, not so.

          From what we've seen in the first six issues of the newsletter,
          putting up an HF antenna in restricted space may involve some
          athletic ability, such as crawling around attics, but once there
          the antennas seem to radiate well enough.  Even when running low
          power (under 50 watts) to minimize RF coupling into power lines or
          overpowering appliances, covert operators have been making
          themselves heard.  Of course, these stories might have turned out
          differently if we hadn't been enjoying the benefits of the great
          solar cycle 22 as it peaked during 1990 through 1992.

          As Lew McCoy, W1ICP, is fond of saying, just get as much wire as
          possible as high and clear as possible to radiate a signal.  But
          as we cruise deeper into a stagnant Sargasso Sea of solar
          inactivity, we may find that our modest crafts no longer will do
          the job for us (talk about stretching for a metaphor...whew).

          This is when covert ops either move someplace where they can erect
          larger antennas or they do as the radio pioneers did and relay
          their messages.  Back then, they sent their messages in 30 to 100
          mile hops by spark gap or CW.  Nowadays, the covert operator can
          put up a tiny two-meter antenna and use an HT and a computer to
          connect to local, but well-equipped, packet gateways between the
          VHF and HF worlds.  Some communities are lucky enough to have

          Page -1-
 

          satellite gateways, like N0NBH in Denver, CO, where hams can use
          low-end packet stations to communicate with satellite bulletin
          board stations.  

          I think the most technical challenge facing the apartment or condo
          dweller isn't HF or even VHF communications:  it's UHF.  That 30-
          meter loop strung around the bedroom ceiling will radiate through
          plaster and wood.  But wet shingles will seriously attenuate 70 cm
          or shorter wavelengths if you're shooting for a satellite. 
          Besides, unwieldy, high-gain UHF antennas are much more difficult
          to install and operate in cramped quarters than a length of wire
          tacked up on walls.  A typical OSCAR array looks like an anti-
          aircraft battery as it is rotated and tilted to track its targets: 
          who has an attic big enough for that?  

          So, we condo dwellers could rely on two meters for our connections
          to better equipped stations, which can then in turn allow us to
          connect to other stations.  Or, perhaps we will use the microwave
          spectrum, connecting to better equipped stations with small dishes
          that can be mounted temporarily on the outside of our buildings or
          on portable masts we can quickly set up in other locations.

          Hopefully, people who do operate the UHF spectrum from portable or
          restricted quarters will contribute notes this coming year to the
          newsletter, as well as folks who have discovered various gateways
          in their communities.  During the coming years, as the ionosphere
          becomes a poorer reflector of signals, it will be interesting to
          see what ingenious strategies covert operators come up with.

          STATION DESCRIPTION

          Only one station desription this issue.

          Doug Heacock, AA0MS, of Lawrence, KS:

               Until recently, I lived in a townhouse and couldn't put up a
               "real" antenna.  I started with a random wire, strung from my
               basement operating position, up the basement stairs and
               around the corner and diagonally across my living room
               ceiling.  I tuned it with an MFJ 949 tuner, and did okay with
               it for a while.  

               Later I ran coax from the basement through a couple of
               closets (where the holes in the floors/celings would be
               hidden) and connected it to a 40-meter dipole wrapped around
               the ceiling perimeter of a second-floor bedroom.  This worked
               quite well for me for a long time.  I seldom ran more than 50
               watts from my Drake TR3, and usually it was more like 10-35
               watts. Never had any problems with RFI, though I mostly
               operated very late at night.

          Cleary, Jack, WN2Q. "Another Attic Antenna," The QRP Quarterly,
               July 1993, pp. 21-22

               Jack describes an attic-mounted delta loop for low-angle
               radiation, one of the eight loops described by Doug DeMaw in

          Page -2-
 

               his W1FB's Antenna Notebook.  Jack's loop is calculated for
               14.060 Mhz with the loop formula: Length = 1005/F (Mhz). 
               Jack had a real adventure installing the antenna in the attic
               of his small, one-story bungalow, including a surprise
               descent into a closet, much to the consternation of his XYL. 
               Fun to read and great info.

          Belrose, Jack, VE2CV. "An Update on Compact Transmitting Loops,"
               QST, November 1993, pp. 37-40.  

               A great article that sums up the theoretical underpinnings of
               small transmitting loops and which also compares the performance
               of different types of loops.  Some of the commercially
               available loops mentioned are the AMA series (a German brand:
               Abstimmbare Magnetische Antennen), the AEA Isoloop, and the
               MFJ Super High-Q.  Loops, while not comparing favorably with
               dipoles on 75 and 40 meters, do compare well with mobile
               whips, for example.  Generally, the larger the diameter of
               the loop and the diameter of the loop conductor, as well as
               the greater its height above ground, the better the low-angle
               radiation pattern given a horizontal orientation.  How about
               from the balcony of a 20-story building?  The article doesn't
               say.

ZCZC AP09 QST de W1AW Propagation Forecast Bulletin 47  
ARLP047 From Tad Cook, KT7H Seattle, WA  November 24, 1993
To all radio amateurs

The bulletin this week is being sent two days early 
because of the holiday.  The solar numbers and averages 
below are for six days. Next week's bulletin will give 
those numbers for eight days.

Solar flux was up about five points over the past week.  
The most disturbed day was Friday, November 19 at 0600z 
when the K index was six.  Otherwise, geomagnetic indices 
have been stable, and solar activity has been low.

Conditions should be stable for the CQ Worldwide CW DX 
Contest this weekend, and solar flux should be under 100.

Disturbed conditions may return after the first of the 
month due to recurring coronal holes.

Sunspot Numbers from November 18 through 23 were 56, 59, 
58, 78, 75 and 69, with a mean of 65.8.  10.7 cm flux was 
102.6, 101.1, 100.5, 97, 99.3, and 100.4, with a mean of 
100.2

The path projection for this week is from Chicago to 
Greece.

80 meters should be open from 1930z to 0730z, with the 
best time from 2200z to 0530z.  40 meters looks good from 
1700z to 1000z, with the best shot from 2130z to 0600z.  
30 meters should be open most days from 0530z to 0730z, 
and every day from 1330z to 2300z.  20 meters looks good 
from 1400z to 1730z.  17 meters should be open from 1500z 
to 1630z.  15 meters may be open on a few days over the
same period.  10 and 12 meters do not look promising over 
this path.

SYNOPSIS OF ACTIVITY
--------------------

             Solar activity was low with many C-class flares
       observed. The largest was a C5 at 25/0621Z that was optically
       uncorrelated. The likely source was Region 7620 (N05W25) that
       produced six other small C-class flares. Region 7620 ceased the
       growth exhibited on 24 Nov. Some mixed polarities remained in
       the center of the Region. The coronal hole that caused the
       geomagnetic storm on 04-07 Nov is again visible in the eastern
       hemisphere. It is as large as last rotation and similar in
       shape.

            Solar activity forecast:  solar activity should continue
       at a generally low level. An isolated low M-class flare from
       Region 7620 is possible.

            The geomagnetic field remained quiet.

            Geophysical activity forecast:  the geomagnetic field
       should be quiet to slightly unsettled for the duration of
       the forecast period.

       The coronal hole-related disturbance noted above is not
       expected until about 01 or 02 December (with emphasis presently
       placed on 02 December).

NOTES:
     All times are in Universal Time (UT).  Characters preceding begin, max,
     and end times are defined as:  B = Before,  U = Uncertain,  A = After.
     All times associated with x-ray flares (ex. flares which produce
     associated x-ray bursts) refer to the begin, max, and end times of the
     x-rays.  Flares which are not associated with x-ray signatures use the
     optical observations to determine the begin, max, and end times.

     Acronyms used to identify sweeps and optical phenomena include:

          II        = Type II Sweep Frequency Event
          III       = Type III Sweep
          IV        = Type IV Sweep
          V         = Type V Sweep
          Continuum = Continuum Radio Event
          Loop      = Loop Prominence System,
          Spray     = Limb Spray,
          Surge     = Bright Limb Surge,
          EPL       = Eruptive Prominence on the Limb.

If your interested in Army MARS, e-mail me.  If your interested in Air
Force or Navy MARS, e-mail me and I will send you a list of those

So long for now...

Subject: Talk America Radio Network
To: info-hams@ucsd.edu

I would like to compile a listing of broadcast stations across the
country which carry the Talk America Radio Network.

This network carries the following shows (that I know of):

Computer Exchange, 1700 - 1900 UTC (12pm - 2pm EST)

Modem Mania, 1900 - 2000 UTC (2pm - 3pm EST)

A Ham Radio Talkshow (I forget the name), 2300 - 2400 UTC (6pm - 7pm EST)

The local affiliate of Talk America in the Greater Boston area is:
1510 AM, WSSH
 
I'll post a summary if I receive enough responses.

Speaking of WSSH, has anyone in the Boston area had any intermittent
reception problems during any of the above mentioned shows (like their
transmitter loses power for a period of time), or is it just me?

Thanks much!

73,
Scott

Subject: The Year's closing- End of Cellular recept???
To: info-hams@ucsd.edu

Hello everyon,

I was wondering if I better get my hands on some rigs that
are capable of the extended recieve before they are banned
for sale in the US.  (does this include the W2A, the 530,
and the other ham radios???)  I really wanted to know because
I have my eyes on the 530 and its nice little lapel mic,
and I was wondering if it won't be availiable when the 
new cellular stuff happens (seeing as how these are relatively
easily modable).

Any ideas/comments??

To: info-hams@ucsd.edu

First, a reminder to all who have FTP capability that the ARRL's infoserver
files are FTPable on world.std.com in /pub/hamradio/arrl/Server-files.

On another note, the World (world.std.com) now has Gopher capability, so you
can also view any of the ARRL documents via Gopher (gopher world.std.com).
At the same time, feel free to browse the other areas, too, under pub/hamradio.

For anyone who has any ham radio related files to offer, please feel free
to place them into /pub/hamradio/Incoming and please don't forget to also
send me e-mail letting me know that you have placed something there, along
with a brief description of what the file does, and where you think it 
should be placed (even if it is obvious).

The FTP area is made available by Software Tool and Die, which runs
and supports the World public access Internet system.   The Boston Amateur
Radio Club, Boston, MA, supports the /pub/hamradio section.

Please feel free, too, to send any comments regarding the Boston Amateur Radio
Club's FTP area to me.

73 to all,
Scott
