Removing 17m

Submitted by K4SPB on Thu, 2026-02-26 14:36

In the past 12 months the RMS has had 123 connections on 17M band (18mhz). This accounts for 11% of all connections but is 25% of the scan time. I'm removing it to increase the scan rotation. Available bands now are 80m, 40m, and 20m.
The antenna is an off center fed dipole so it's limited by harmonics. I plan to switch this to something that will cover the WARC bands soon enabling 30m and 15m.
