Local coverage over here is around 500 miles daytime. I can qso at this dist=
ance daily on both 137 and 500 and a fraction of the power that you guys run=
.
I can work OH1TN and the Italian stns at over 1000 miles daily anytime on 13=
7 and GI4DPE  and others on 500 Khz  at around 400 miles without any effort.=
 My latest xband 137/500 is a couple of  thousand of miles away. If you read=
 the mail I was S4 and ED was S3 with me on CW audible.=20
My choice is CW but I have to comply with others at times when they prefer Q=
RS 3 etc but I do not use any lower speed than qrs3.
My Pa is 1 fet job and you could put in your pocket, call in anytime and see=
 it. If I had the power that you guys are permitted I could work worldwide 2=
4 hrs every day.
The Russian guys are on the ball and get their act together, always in QSO m=
ode and no BEACON pollution.

ith that? No CW? hi hi

  Local coverage on this side of the pond is considered about 50 miles from=20=
a station. So you got a first on your side of the pond & Jay & Dex got a fir=
