When sitting at my desk last thursday and doing something I monitored 500KHz
in the background. For a long time - nothing.
Then at 16.06 utc suddenly " CQ CQ.." (me: one jump out of the chair and to
the receiver - who has a permission for 500?) " IAR5 QSW 511 (?) ....." and
lost something. What is the meaning of QSW? The handbook said "I will
transmit on....." . So I tuned to 511KHz and heard a station giving a
weather-forecast for the mediteranian sea in fast CW. Maybe it was the
italian navy stn IAR5.
And I had expected a new DX on a new band.
