Over the weekend, I called CQ a couple of times, but no takers. DX heard on Sunday, 4 Nov, included HB9ASB (549), F6BWO (549), DK5PT (559) and IK5ZPV (a good signal at 559, calling CQ and QSX 3.5MHz). IK5ZPV was heard at about 1700 so was the good signal due to the flare reported by Alan above? Fixed a minor fault on my antenna caused by a cable-tie becoming brittle and snapping - never use cable ties on LF antennas! Mike, G3XDV (IO91VT) http://www.lf.thersgb.net
