Hi all, I've been making 11m antennae since the late 1970's. I have put in a link to the SE DX Forum Quad page as there is too much information to transfer over to here. (while your there, you are welcome to have a look around the SEDX Forum)

Tnx to Greg for the heads up on this wonderful site, also tnx for the QSO on 20/01/08.

I made my first cubical quad (4 element) in 1982. It was a fantastic antenna. I wish I could use it now, but space and asthetics (wife) won't permit. I now run an inverted V broadband and a Barret 950.

This is my first post here. I am keen to get into some DX on 11 metres again. last time was way back in the early 80's. I am also keen on UHF tropo. It has been great up here in Townsville this week.

Any DXers, listen out for me on 27.155 LSB. Delta Oscar 61.

Cheers

Nice looking spider web there Pete

Hi Pete, looks the goods in the morning mist!

I guess it pulls the DX as welll as you seem to be doing a bit OS lately.

Good to know its out there if you have the ears!

DJolsen nice to see you in here as well. Let us know how your going up the in sunny QLD on the Barret and the CB bands.

I may catch you on #16 as I monitor there when it gets dx busy on #35 as I am a mud duck station :D

No worries, will listen out for you if the MUF ever climbs above 20 MHz :-). First sunspot of cycle 24 just appeared 5/5/08. Only about another 3 required :-)

Cheers
DJ
