I am qrv on all HF bands and surprised to work
so many ex LF ops, they have all left for bands where qso's are
more plentiful on CW.
Just worked HB9ASB Toni on
10 Mcs ex 137 kcs op, we had many cw qso's in the
past.
LF and MF vy quiet at present and 9 Kcs a
dead duck especially in the UK. Does anyone intend to transmit with an
antenna on 9 Kcs in theUK or is there anyone with a RX setup capable of
hearing a cw or qrs signal?
I have asked this question before but get no
response!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kilroy says kites are banned in the Uk above 5
metres, 9 Kcs could be a damp squib
