His QTH is almost perfect for 500kHz (close to the ocean, almost no obstacles) in contradiction to my QTH (inland, lot's of trees). But I am interested in a CW QSO with you, could you drop a message (to the reflector) when you are QRV ? I have rather limited time for the hobby, most evenings I cannot spend all time listening. 73, Rik ON7YD - OR7T At 04:20 9/11/2009, you wrote: >500 kHz TA enthusiasts > >Suprisingly good TA conditions of late.
