It's now been 4 months since we've had use of the 500 kHz experimental band.
I notched up my 150th QSO on this band today - congratulations to G3YMC who was number 150 . . HI !

It's unfortunate but some of the callsigns which were frequently heard on 500 in the earlier days now seem silent.
There are however a few potential new ops in the pipeline so with luck we can keep activity at a decent level.

Those I've worked so far, with number of contacts, in alphabetical order :-

G0NBD - 1
G0MRF - 1
G3AQC - 10
G3GRO - 4
G3KEV - 26
G3KZU - 1
G3OLB - 1
G3ROO - 4
G3UNT - 20
G3VTT - 20
G3WCB - 1
G3XAQ - 8
G3YMC - 4
G3YXM - 5
G4GDR - 12
GI3PDN - 7
GI4DPE - 5
GW3UEP - 2
M0BMU - 2
M0FMT - 16

Those I still want to work:

G3JFS
G3MRP
G3WGT
G3YVF
GW4HXO

I think some QRSS activity would be beneficial in moderation.
With this mode the peripheral and/or weaker stations could have regular and reliable Q5 contacts with the whole country.
I've been putting out CQ's on 503.3 kHz QRSS-3 some evenings but to date have not had any QRSS contacts.
Please call if you hear (or see) me - on QRSS or CW if you think possible.
