Hi all
Saturday seemed to be another fairly quiet morning with the static not
building up until after 1500Z. A QRS cq from DK8KW was logged at 0421Z
and again finishing at 0444Z. The first was just readable would be the
lowest report from me ( T ?) The second call was mashed up by the noise
but was on the same freq and had elements of Geri's call (bear in mind
Geri that most active stations in the UK would receive up to 20dB better
than I do) At least one other station detected slightly higher in frequency
at 0640Z maybe this was DF3LP, but the signal was right in the noise with me
and I was unable to reliably distinguish call letters. I heard G8RW at hand
speed at 1312Z at better strength than I normally hear him.

I only discovered Finbar had crystallized his beacon (hope it tastes good
Finbar ) late on Saturday evening by which time nothing was heard or seen
on the waterfall display, through the static crashes. An all night log of
the
QRS end of the band shows his signal 'popping' out of the noise 0010Z, with
a complete call in the clear ('O') at 0140Z. The signal was visible here
until 0730Z though never as good a strength. It could be seen with a little
imagination up to 1100Z though not at a fully readable strength. Also heard
at good strength were Steve GW4ALG, and G3YXM, and I think John G4GVC though
I didn't record his call (so used to hearing John I recognise his fist)
G8RW called CQ at 0837Z with the strongest signal I have ever heard from
him.
I note an entry from Alain on Sunday so maybe he has got his wire working
properly now.
It will be nice to get spots from France.
