Dennis,

 

Interesting on the rtty contact, what method are you using for 'tx' ?

 

What is your locator square ? you may be in the 'dead zone' in terns of distance , Gary and myself are roughly the same distance north , but after 70 miles or so ,there is a 'dead zone' till about 200 , I don't know, may be a band 100 miles wide after that, that's a problem with the band and as you can see at 600 miles, signals show up  quite well at Shetland, while not showing at Glasgow

 

 

 

I posted this 18/10 , :  was that you on cw ?

 

Seeing a very  low signal on 502.350 no audio .. looks like a cw cq call ?  60 second tx with 'gap'

 

35 ft top load .. no atu ... ft897-d  atten 'on'

Hi Gary

 

You may have heared me using RTTY on the 18th as I had a QSO with Chris G3XIZ earlier which went wrong, and was testing my TX later during your QSO with him.   My main problem is that I appear to be getting our reasonably well, but not so good on receive so didn't hear you.

Sorry about that.   I am working on the receive problem which is probably due to high QRN at my location.

Hi LF,

 

Just had a good RTTY QSO with Chris G3XIZ.

 

Is there any other station can use RTTY, 45 Baud, 85 Hz shift ?

 

Please look for my CQ calls on 503.600 KHz

 

73,
