MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Mailer: Excite Inbox X-Sender-Ip: 62.7.187.109 Precedence: bulk Reply-To: rsgb_lf_group@blacksheep.org X-Listname: rsgb_lf_group Sender: Hi Tony and All, DJ9IE is certainly putting out a good signal, but he seems to have great difficulty in hearing any of the numerous responses. He has been on calling CQ most of this week using what sounds like an automatic keyer or perhaps just a very good fist. This morning he was calling CQ around 08.45 and I heard Bob, G8RW, return his call about 09.00 local time. They did manage a QSO mostly because of Bob's persistence, but Uli only gave him 3,2,9, whereas Bob gave Uli 5,8,9. He was a good 5,7,9 here with me in Reading. It would be interesting to know why the lack of reciprocity - perhaps Uli is using a different Antenna for receive?
