- ********For Sale*******
- ****AOR2800 Scanner****
- Wife says I have to many toys, So, I must say
- goodbye to some of it for cash. (I guess she
- wants to spend some of our money too!) :)
-
- This scanner was purchaced from Ace Communications
- 1 year ago, for $449.00 plus shipping. It is in
- mint condition, and has everything it came with,
- except the box. (Wasn't that great of a box anyway!)
- Selling price: $325.00, I pay shipping.
- Terms: Money Order or Cashiers check ships same day
- Personal check must clear first. No COD.
-
- Trades: May be interested in NEWER computer periphials
- or components (NO 8088, 286, or 386SX16 junk please!)
- All mode TNC, Misc. Ham gear (Keyers, paddles, Antennas
- etc.) These may be partial trades with cash, or full.
-
- Features:
-
- AM, NFM, WFM, SSB w/BFO
- Coverage; 500KHz-600MHz 800MHz-1300MHz
- Sensitivity: .35uV Narrow FM
- 1.0uV Wide FM
- 1.0uV AM
-
- Step Increments; 5-995KHz
-
- 1000 Memory Channels
- 1000 Search Channels
-
- This unit works flawlessly, and is guaranteed against DOA
- Does HF Ham bands and SW Great! (If you are wondering why
- the cut-out between 600MHz and 800MHz, it is to prevent
- front end overload from strong TV stations, which is the
- only thing you mis by not having those frequencies)
- Comes with manual, Antenna, Power supply and a nifty acrylic
- desk stand, and a cigarette lighter plug.

- SYNOPSIS OF ACTIVITY
- --------------------
-
- Solar activity was very low. A new region was numbered
- today as Region 7732 (S09W27).
-
- Solar activity forecast: solar activity is expected to be
- very low to low. The four regions currently on the disk have
- the potential for producing an isolated C-class flare.
-
- The geomagnetic field has been at quiet to unsettled
- levels for the past 24 hours. Brief periods of active levels
- at mid-latitudes and minor storm levels at high latitudes
- were observed during nighttime sectors. Energetic electron
- flux levels (GT 2 MeV) were at high levels for the period.
-
- Geophysical activity forecast: the geomagnetic field is
- expected to be unsettled for the first day of the period
- and becoming active for day three and four of the forecast.

- Minor Storm 10/15/15
- Major-Severe Storm 05/05/05
-
- HF propagation conditions were normal over all regions.
- Normal propagation should continue over the next 24 hours.
- However, another recurrent coronal hole is expected to elevate
- levels of geomagnetic and auroral activity and degrade
- communications (primarily on the higher latitude paths)
- beginning on 10 June.

-
- The only antenna of the above with which I have experience is a
- GAP Voyager IV - which is a compromise antenna - no kidding. Is that
- similar to a GAP Titan? This antenna is 45 feet tall with a six foot dia
- top hat. Worked well on 40, mediocre to bad on 20, bad on 80 and sucked
- boulders on 160. Since you do not want to hear about real-radial-vertical
- I will not bore you with the details of how a Cushcraft AP8A beat it in
- every band in head to head comparison for DX reception. Yes, the AP8A has
- four sets of five radials ( for different bands ) in a ground plane
- configuration, abt 10 ft off the terra firma.
-
- I have counseled a number of hams in my club to use regular multiband verticals
- with radials instead of the much more expensive compromises. It is not question
- that an R7 requires much less real estate. However, the radials are not that
- hard to put up. Even one radial will provide good but directional coverage.
- You can load them with coils, lay them on a roof (not great but better
- than having a 3 foot stub), bend them etc preferably not slope up or switch
- back.

- Your best approach is to ask whoever your local frequency coordnation

- Actually, what REALLY happened is that The Old Man went to Singapore, and
- came back with the Dreaded Wouff Hong, which is actually what's used as
