Enhancing Performance with W8JK/MOXON Antenna Variant - F5NPV introduces a variant of the W8JK antenna design, employing the MOXON principle. With extended monopoles, it outperforms the Open-Folded W8JK, yielding a 1dbd gain improvement, enhanced performance on 30m and 10m bands, bi-directionality, and lower side attenuation. The design's focus on higher radiation impedance results in increased antenna efficiency and reduced losses. Despite these improvements, the bill of materials remains unchanged.

Propagation on 630 Meters and 2200 Meters - This is a theoretical look at propagation on 630-Meters and 2200-Meters using ray tracing software. It expands on the brief discussion in the ARRL Handbooks. The Earth's magnetic field affects 630-Meter and 2200-Meter band propagation. Lower ionization reduces absorption, aiding low-frequency propagation. Differences exist between bands, limited daytime sky-wave propagation. Sunrise/sunset show promise, yet mechanisms are unclear. Ducting possible at night in specific conditions. Negative ions enhance propagation. Inefficient antennas and high man-made noise are anticipated. Groundwave propagation is significant on 2200-Meters.

20 W HF Power Amplifier - A HF power amplifier with a push-pull of AFT09MS015N. The (small-signal) gain of the amplifier is around 26 dB in the lower HF band and goes down to about 24 dB on the higher end and still around 21 dB at 50 MHz. Its input matching is relatively good at the lower HF and degrades above 10 MHz.
