Alright you guys ;)
I saw the post that one of you has logged his 25th NDB state (bonus points for not even residing in the USA).
So who will be the first to do at least one of the following...
Log all 50 states (bonus points if it's done by someone outside the USA), although the contiguous 48 may be passable. (You could log all Canadian provinces or Mexican states, as alternate options.)
Log at least one NDB on every allocated frequency by a particular country (in 1 kHz divisions, for example 282.5 - 283.5 kHz would count as 283 kHz)
Log every NDB on one frequency in your home country plus adjacent countries
I know I won't be the first. I'll be lucky with my current equipment (PL-606 and barbed wire fence - does the fence, even though it's fixed, non-rotatable, non-tunable, and originally wasn't designed as an antenna, put me in the "unlimited" category?) to log my 15th NDB overall, 5th state, 4th using ONLY the built-in ferrite (unless DGPS & traveling 80 miles for another one doesn't count), OR 2nd on the same frequency (from the same location) before all current competitors have completed all of the above challenges. ;)
73,
Stephen
P.S. With those Ferrite Sleeve Loops, does every single NDB frequency sound as crowded as the Class C (graveyard) mediumwave channels would sound at night when using only the Amidon 7.5" stick?
