Where to practice QRQ CW ! - QRQcw2024-03-28T20:28:52Zhttp://qrqcwnet.ning.com/forum/topics/where-to-practice-qrq-cw?commentId=1993813%3AComment%3A2141&feed=yes&xn_auth=noI used to live in an apartmen…tag:qrqcwnet.ning.com,2009-02-15:1993813:Comment:23012009-02-15T22:33:03.000ZJoehttp://qrqcwnet.ning.com/profile/Joe
I used to live in an apartment complex, Bill, so I know what you are faced with. Here on Maui, we live in a house with no outside antenna allowed. I put up a loop under the eve of the our two story, wood frame, house and feed it directly to a transmatch with pretty good results on 80 through 10. I run less than a 100 watts to avoid RFI. So far, so good. One option I tried years ago was mobile operation on cw. I would drive to the seashore or lakefront and put up my vertical with good results on…

I put up a loop under the eve of the our two story, wood frame, house and feed it directly to a transmatch with pretty good results on 80 through 10. I run less than a 100 watts to avoid RFI. So far, so good. One option I tried years ago was mobile operation on cw. I would drive to the seashore or lakefront and put up my vertical with good results on higher frequencies. A second option would be to try some of the remote stations that can be accessed on the internet. You can find more information at <a href="http://www.w4mq.com">http://www.w4mq.com</a>. There are some other web based transcievers out there but I don't know if they can be used for high speed CW. QRP is always a great option and will become even more fun when we get into the current solar cycle. You can load up the bed springs on 10 meters and get out when the sunspots are up! Maybe some of the other folks on this site will have some suggestions.<br />

I have been trying to find a means of getting back on the air. Living in this condo makes it really difficult to operate due to antenna and transmitting device restrictions. I'll receive an instant fine if caught which doubles for the next infraction and then they really go after you. So, i saw this dicussion a couple weeks ago and looked into it and now am back on cw. It might not be exactly what i had in mind but it works and i'm quite happy about being able to operate once again. Thank you…

Hi, Chuck!<br />
<br />
I tried to remember a few of the qrqcw ops, here it gose : VE2FKZ W8KV W4KD SP3CW<br />
KA1DYE N9PR these are the guys i meet them often.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately you won't find huge pile ups or anything on cq100, but my intention is<br />
to increase and gethering together more and more qrqcw ops.<br />
<br />
Since I've find this site i read all the messages from ops, and their problem mostly is that they<br />
can't brek through poor propagation.<br />

<br />
People having problem to shoot through east coast to west coast or from hawaii to<br />
east coast etc etc.<br />
<br />
All in all it would be a great program for having solid qso's with eachother all over the world.<br />
<br />
All we need to do is let the people to know about it.<br />
<br />
My best regards<br />

Sounds like a great idea !<br />
Thanks for suggesting it and for telling us how good the features of the program do for QRQ cw.<br />
Do you know who some of the other high speed ops are that use CQ100 on a regular basis besides yourself ?
