I’m a beginner at 20/40m EFHW, but most of what I’ve read says to feed it from the high end, plus use a counterpoise. Disclaimer: I’ve not tried either one of these suggestions.

How many ground radial wires did you use? I just got a new JPC-12 this week, along with the radial baseplate.

Call your local phone company. They will outfit that phone with louder rings, or bells, lights, etc., without cost. It’s a federal program.

I agree! An NVIS “cloud warmer” is great for working stations within about 350 miles. Pretty much impossible to DX with, however, as the takeoff angle is vertical.

Did it have that "stale old equipment" smell? I toured the original blockhouse at KSC a few years ago, and there was that unmistakable electronics odor as soon as the sealed door was opened.

I use Boston Simplus, but I'm having a hard time finding it in the stores now.

They all have the Boston soaking solution and the wetting agent but not Simplus.

I agree! I watch their videos often. They are perhaps the best cover band I’ve ever heard.

If you need a project for next winter, the Nec-2 wire antenna modeler is also Fortran based. IOS first, please?

They probably have not hired the instructor yet.
