Hello Luigi, Also thanks for the QSO! ...and the nice report :-) Your signal was quite good for that distance, peaking up to 559 on my subjective human RST-meter! :-) Sorry about the QRS, it was the
How can we have regular skeds when there are only 4 regular stations active, one on RTTY, one on CW, one on PSK and another only on BEACON mode. My previous message must have escaped YOU. G3KEV
I dearly love subscribing to this list, absent the periodic "harrumps" from those insisting that most of us are well down the road to perdition. Anyway, please allow a suggestion. I recall nothing in
Yes this is also true Uwe. I don't think everyone in the UK realizes that the DI and OK beacon stations are just that - beacons only, not for 2-way communications. Keep up the good work Uwe. It's gre
I've just been calling CQ, in CW, at speeds between 10WPM and 35WPM, for almost 2 hours. Had a difficult QSO with GI3PDN at 1650UTC - severe QSB. Other than that heard nil. Daylight conditions, can't
I presume that UK stations operating Beacons on 501-504kHz and on 136kHz must have special permits to do so. I do not. 73 Dave, LF, On your first point (above) I'm disappointed not to have heard any
If u are restricted to BEACON MODE end of story. Some UK stations inflict themselves with BEACON MODE when they are permitted to have two way communications.This does not make sense. We need two way
The definition of a Beacon is in clause 17(g) of the Amateur Licence and is covered by clause 10 and Schedule 2. Oh and I forgot.... a beacon is (as defined) "automatic transmitting only Radio Equipm

Please can you identify the "only 4 regular stations active"? Who is the unique "one on CW"? On CW recently I've worked or heard :- GI3PDN GI4DPE G3XVL GM4ISM G3DXZ G3XIZ G3UNT G3KEV GW4HXO G3WCE If
There probably are some stations that will only ever be active as beacons, but that's often due to very difficult local receiving conditions. At least they're doing something positive though, rather
Hi all Since 500 was authorised in the UK it does not seem to be attracting the 160 m fraternity, who have all the expertise and knowledge and good CW skills. The predominent mode on 160 is CW and so
Mal, My previous message must have escaped YOU. Be assured that none of your messages have escaped me. I actually look forward to your return every three months. Perhaps it takes that long to replace

Being one whom seems destined to live in places where no local activity exists within , say, 5000Kms radii, can I say that Ive had the delight to hear numerous Eu signals on Circa 505Khz over the pas
You won't be hearing any beacons or data from me on 501-504kHz, Mal, as beacon and data operation is not included on my SRP NoV - just A1A CW. The definition of a Beacon is in clause 17(g) of the Ama
