Last night the overnight Op32 transmission of WD2XES was successfully
decoded twice by three UK stations despite strong QRN from storms in
eastern Euprope.
Details are as follows:
05:01 136 WD2XES de GW0EZY Op32 5064 km -36 dB in Welshpool IO82HO
05:01 136 WD2XES de M0LMH Op32 5146 km -36 dB in Harrogate
05:01 136 WD2XES de G3XDV Op32 5296 km -38 dB in Welwyn, IO91VT
04:29 136 WD2XES de M0LMH Op32 5146 km -39 dB in Harrogate
04:29 136 WD2XES de GW0EZY Op32 5064 km -37 dB in Welshpool IO82HO
04:28 136 WD2XES de G3XDV Op32 5296 km -40 dB in Welwyn, IO91VT
The fact that this was achieved only at UK sunrise shows how much
more difficult this 500km+ path is than the much shorter paths to TF
and Moscow which have been open most of the night recently.
