I do not think the 43uw (as measure on an RF Test Set) into a dipole at 15 feet AGL is enough for DX and the ground wave can not go the distance to my grabber.
Centre Dipole Insulator QRSS Transmitter
The Transmitter is installed via clip leads into the Centre Insulator on a 30 meter Dipole.
The Transmitter's Working QTH
Planned improvements include more power (qrp QRO), maybe up to a few milli-watts. I have some 2n7002 which will work great for a PA, at the expense of battery life. Just another project to finish - Don't ya' just love it!

Perhaps you could power it from a solar cell, then it would run forever as long as the sun is shining!
ReplyDeleteA solar cell for power has always been my goal, but only if it looks like it will receive conformation via Grabber that it works at this low power.
