Climbing skins for Uncle Buds?

Post by grahamlove »

Hello,

Do you think climbing skins are necessary for Uncle Buds hut? Would the skies with scalloped base be sufficient?

Fishscale skis work fine on the Turquoise Lake Road but you will need skins on the steep climb from the road to the hut.

You can’t just repurpose an AM diode detector for SSB like that it won’t recover audio properly because SSB needs a product detector with a BFO injecting the missing carrier. Without coherent mixing at IF, you’ll just get distortion or silence, so the detector stage has to be replaced, not modified.Broken Screen
