Yesterday is was a very nice and sunny afternoon.
I had a day off from work and still had to fix a problem om my home made 2 elm SteppIR.
First locate the driven elment without a balun. And made this one my driven element.
The other driven elem has to be like a director or a reflector.
So there is one thing i really have to do and forgot in the first place. Solder a copper wire between the two pols.
Ok for only that fix i had to disable the complete motor again :(

After a hours of two i fixed the problem, and still need to test it in the field.
Hope this will work. I will let you know as soon as possible.

Today we got home and turned on the radio.
I was listening on 15mtr and did notice some nice propagation.
Well lets try the magic band 17mtr. What will this bring us.
After getting there who did i hear. W8ERN Angelo very strong. 9+10 +15 all the time.
Make a Qso with him and had a nice chat on the band. And that only with 200w from the rig at the present time.
Talk about the 7700 in compaire with the 9000D. I also made a recording Qso from Angelo with me.

Angelo got a nice website http://w8ern.com online with commcat live. A software program that runs with HRD. It is sending out the frequencie signal report rotor heading etc etc.
I you like to see what program does here a link to the website of commcat. http://www.commcat.com/
