Thanks Dave. The crossband route seems to be the only option until we all get the band on this side of the pond. With the nearest VE's (other than VE7TIL) so far away, the pickings are pretty slim! I
Encouraged by the recent succesful crossband QSO (2200m / 80m cw) with Roger, K0MVJ near Duluth, I am hoping to be able to promote further LF activity and interest in this two-way mode. Accordingly,
A nice crossband QSO was completed tonight with Jay, VY1JA in Whitehorse, YT. 80m cw - 2200m QRSS3 @ 1540km. Jay has now obtained an experimental licence for 136 and will be constructing a tx while w
John - this is the first time I have seen your signal back here. Traces at 0730Z with peak around 0820-0850Z, much the same as Alan Melia noted I believe. Also bits of Warren but he is almost on top
oops..let's make that distance 2480 miles! John - this is the first time I have seen your signal back here. Traces at 0730Z with peak around 0820-0850Z, much the same as Alan Melia noted I believe. A
Laurence - just arrived back on the island for another week...shall I turn the beacon on for a bit? Steve / VE7SL Web: "THE VE7SL RADIO NOTEBOOK" at http://www.imagenisp.ca/jsm [L.F. Loops] [Tuna Tin
I will again be looking for random LF-HF crossband contacts Wednesday night on the following schedule: 0400Z (Dec 30) - 0700Z CQ on the hour and half hour on 137.5735kHz QRSS20 with dash/dot ratio of
Reverting to normal CW for the weekend attracted some new activity to the west coast LF scene. Both Scott (VE7TIL) and myself set our beacons to run 6 wpm CW with a "CQ...QSX 3536 kHz..." loop runnin
OK Mike...thanks for the report. I don't think condx were up to even 'normal' levels last night. I think tonight is forecast to be worse still. I'll probably run again all night again...it's the only
Jay, VY1JA and myself have just completed a CW-CW crossband QSO (80m - 2200m). Distance is around 1000 miles due north of me. Good ears up there Jay!! Hopefully we can do it soon on 2200. Steve / VE7
In view of the improving conditions I'll be in the 'CQ Crossband' mode tonight, looking for any callers on 80m and 40m CW. If you would prefer to call on SSB, please let me know where to listen for y
PA repaired. I noticed a new sort of behaviour of IFRP450s. when in the past they exploded fragments were spread all over the PA. but the three newly exploded looked like intact. one cant rely on not
VA7 or VE7 ... I believe the path is to near at the pole and is not possible at the moment. Maybe just before a CME arrival? Hartmut - great strong signals from Iceland last night here on 189...I hav
We had no copy on the down under signal on their first transmission but their second call was received at 100%. The cap shows "ZM2E ZM2E E" as expected, with the 'E' being substituted for the longer
Very FB guys!! This is great to see. Hopefully it will encourage more of the same. Excellent....congrats to you both!!! Steve / VE7SLWeb: "THE VE7SL RADIO NOTEBOOK" at http://www.imagenisp.ca/jsm [L.
but I would like to get specific grid square or co-ordinate information from Teo before working out the actual distance. KN05bw...according to online Buckmaster. VE7SL
