Thanks for the QSO Alan - at the
moment I think you are about my best 'DX'.... At least the recent
improvements I have made to the antenna and tx seem to have bourne fruit, I
can now have quite reasonable QSOs and the logbook is beginning to fill up!
I listened also to your QSO with G3YVF, first time I have heard him and he
is now quite a nice signal (though you are slightly stronger).
I have
added a bit more to my website with a page detailing impedance measurements
on 500k, with a modified version of Peter G3LDO's 3M bridge and software. I
need to add a bit more to complete it, including my own measurements, but it
is almost all there.
I don't hear the GW stations at the moment, guess
they have closed down - and can't hear Finbar either but he is right under
'MRF. Heard Tom G3OLB testing briefly around 501.9 earlier with a good
signal.
