Regarding Ali DF2BC, Ha-Jo wrote on Saturday:
I have heard him well 569 in QTH JN68GN (eastern Bavaria) but could not raise
him with my 75 watts output, sri. QRN here has been very low this morning,
about S2 only.
I'm sorry that you could not raise him, Ha-Jo.
It was too windy to put up my balloon antenna, so I was only
using my simple 12 m vertical (+ 400 W RF). But I worked Ali at
05:30 Saturday (579 sent, 339 received). The distance is 687
km. Ali's receiving system does appear to be working well - but
eastern Bavaria is a long way from Campen!
Regards to all,
