To: info-hams@ucsd.edu Now that I finally have a radio that covers the WARC bands, I'm thinking of getting the add on kit for 12 & 17 meters for my Butternut vertical. Does anyone have any experience with this upgrade? I'm specifically interested in whether the bandwidth is narrowed on the other bands once this kit is installed. For example, Butternut has said that the 160 meter add on kit will narrow the bandwidth on 80 meters. Will this one affect the others to any great extent? BTW, the Butternut is the best performing vertical I've owned. I'd love to see what I could get out of it if I got it up in the air. Right now it's ground mounted with 17 radials, most of which are cut for the higher bands. Since Dec. 1989, have worked 275 countries overall with it (about 268 of them running barefoot). Also have worked 150+ countries on 40 meters with it, at least 110 of those running barefoot. Performance barefoot is dropping off considerably with the solar cycle the way it is these days, but for a vertical, I'm still very happy with it.

The program is entitled CELLDEMO.ZIP Send an e-mail message to: ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com Leave the subject line blank or use the word: file In the body of the e-mail message, type the following six lines starting at line 1. Put YOUR e-mail address where is says your-email-address: reply your-email-address connect ftp.funet.fi binary uuencode get pub/dx/software/msdos/rx-control/celldemo.zip quit Except for your e-mail address, type it EXACTLY the way it reads above. If you make any spelling or spacing mastakes, it won't work. Send it or mail it when you're sure it's correct. Some time later you'll get a few pieces of e-mail. Two of these will each contain a portion of the demo program. The others are information only. Now you need to do some additional work. Edit the first of the two files you received to remove everything before the line that reads: begin 444 ftpmail This should now be line 1 of the file. Save the file. The 444 refers to the number of lines in the two files, and ftpmail is the file name that you'll end up with when you combine them. Edit the second file to remove everything before the line that begins with uppercase garbled text (similar to the text starting on line 2 of the first file). Save this file also. Now you need a program called UUDECODE. If you don't have it, download and run the program UUE.EXE (or something similar) from a BBS in your area. Now type: UUDECODE name-of-the-FIRST-file you received-and-edited You'll now have a new file named FTPMAIL that is the sum of the two separate files your received and edited. Rename this new file: celldemo.zip Remember, celldemo.zip was the file you originally asked FTP to send you. Now you need a program called PKUNZIP. If you don't have it, download and run the program PKZ204G.EXE from a BBS in your area. Now type: PKUNZIP celldemo.zip You'll now have four new files. Read the READ.ME file and then run the CSIDEMO program. We realize that this was a lot of work. However, it didn't cost you anything except some time, and you now have a demo of the CSI unit. In addition, if this worked for you, you now know how to FTP any program, from anywhere, via e-mail. All you need to know is the FTP site, and the directory and name of the program you want. You may wish to save this FTP tutorial for future use.

Never could write cursive! But what comes out tends to have characteristics of cursive writing without the connecting lines. As a result, I can write lower-case print-style characters without thinking about them, so that's what I use copying code. I think the real key _is_ using something you don't have to think about, because stopping to think about any aspect of your copy slows you down. (Again why I can't copy on a typewriter/computer.) Even when, at slower speeds, I'm writing block capitals for legibility (few can read what I've written in the lower-case printing), I use the lower-case "e" because the block "e" just takes too long.

Region 7668 (N08E35) was the most active this period producing several optical flares with B-class enhancements while showing good white light growth. Rgn 7664 (S12W75) produced the only C-class flare this period which maxed at 1822. This rgn is also showing growth as it approaches the west limb. All other regions are stable. Solar activity forecast: solar activity is expected to be low with Regions 7664 and 7668 showing the most promise for C-class activity. Old Region 7654 (N09, carrington 207) is due to return late on the 11Th. During its last rotation, it produced 4 M-class and 27 C-class flares. At middle latitudes, the geomagnetic field has been at active to minor storm levels while at high latitudes, the field has been at mostly active to major storm levels with isolated severe storm conditions reported. A favorably positioned coronal hole is believed to be responsible for the storm conditions. Geophysical activity forecast: the geomagnetic field should remain at mostly active levels for the duration of the forecast period. Occasional periods of minor to major storms are still likely. Disturbed geomagnetic conditions should be expected for the next six days. STD: High energy electrons at greater than 2 MeV continue to be observed. Satellite charging anomalies are possible and will remain possible for as long as this enhancement continues. Event probabilities 10 feb-12 feb Class M 10/15/20 Class X 01/01/01 Proton 01/01/01 PCAF Green Geomagnetic activity probabilities 10 feb-12 feb A. Middle Latitudes Active 50/45/20 Minor Storm 15/15/10 Major-Severe Storm 15/10/05 B. High Latitudes Active 50/50/55 Minor Storm 15/15/10 Major-Severe Storm 10/10/10 HF propagation conditions are disturbed over all regions. Although transpolar and transauroral circuits have been hit the hardest, degradations have been noticed through to the equatorial regions. MUFs are well below normal, depressed by between 20 and 50 percent. LUFs are also elevated, narrowing the available bandwidth. Periods of total radio blackouts are continuing to be observed for transauroral and transpolar circuits. Although conditions are expected to very gradually improve over the next week, nothing substantial is expected.

Please read the following that was posted to QRP this week: Subject: QRP List now under Majordomo All administrative requests should now be sent to "Majordomo@Think.COM"; mail sent to the QRP-Request address will cause an automatic reply from Majordomo telling you what you should do. If you want to unsubscribe from this list, send a message to the majordomo address above containing only the line: unsubscribe qrp If you want to get the QRP-Digest list (still considered highly experimental!) instead of the QRP list, send a message containing these two commands: unsubscribe qrp subscribe qrp-digest More info on things you can do with/to majordomo can be had by sending the command: help Eventually, I will move the files which are in the QRP anonymous FTP area into an area where they can be automaticaly retrieved by majordomo; as yet, you'll find nothing with "index qrp". If you still have questions or comments that require a human, send to QRP-Admin@Think.COM, and someone will (eventually) get back to you. 73, --Bruce Walker bruce@think.com WT1M ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 Feb 1994 00:09:12 GMT From: scubed!ihnp4.ucsd.edu!sdd.hp.com!vixen.cso.uiuc.edu!howland.reston.ans.net!cs.utexas.edu!oakhill!yosemite.sps.mot.com!ben@network.ucsd.edu To: info-hams@ucsd.edu References <gdavis.760825204@griffin>, <1994Feb10.171218.7423@dtint.dtint.com>, <1994Feb12.022037.1025@megatek.com>edu Subject : Re: Nude amateur radio clubs In article <1994Feb12.022037.1025@megatek.com>, Jim Campbell <jimc@megatek.com> wrote: >In article <1994Feb10.171218.7423@dtint.dtint.com> Allen Wallace <allen@dtint.dtint.com> writes: >> >>There might be, but I bet that they are all OMs and no YLs or XYLs! > > Close.

There have been one or two YL's besides her that have checked in as well. IMHO, the number of YL's checking in is likely to be proportional to the number of YL's that are hams rather than of those that are nudists. --ben -- Ben Thornton Amateur call: WD5HLS Internet: ben@yosemite.sps.mot.com Motorola Inc., Austin, TX Caution: Wearing clothes has been shown to cause permanent psychological dependence on textiles.
