Hi MF,

Just regarding CW activity on MF, below you can find another good 
example that (CW) activity rises activity. So if there is no one on the 
band, just call CQ, preverably with *Q R O* so that many stations can 
hear you, even those with local QRM and compromise antennas. First they 
must hear you, _then_ they may start to improve their RX system and 
_just then_ they will hear the QRP stations! Even if no one answers, the 
calls are not "a waste of energy and time". At least for me it's nice to 
know there are a few people outside catchinhg the signal, maybe even 
unintended :-) In that case, the OM didn't even know that the 630m band 
is existing for radio amateurs!

73, Stefan/DK7FC

Hello Stefan,<br>
    </div>
Just a short email to tell you that I picked up your signals on the
600m band yesterday evening. I heard you calling CQ a few times with
your locator JN49, then you started working another DK station called
Rudi. I didn't get the callsign of the other station because of local
QRM, but your signals were clear here at times, best report 519 for you.<br>
    <br>
    </div>
I was tuning on my RX looking for the non-directional aircraft beacons
between 280KHz and 530KHz when I came across your CQ calling on 473KHz.
At first I thought there must be a fault with my RX because I didn't
know about the new 600m band, but now that I do, I'll listen there some
more! Very interesting!<br>
    <br>
    </div>
My SWL station is a Trio R-600 with end-fed wire antenna (see GW0LBI on
QRZ.com), and my location is Bargoed Wales, IO81jq if that is any use
to you.<br>
    <br>
    </div>
Anyway hope this helps Stefan, I'll listen for you again, and good luck.<br>
    <br>
