Just think how many trans-Atlantic QSOs could be made. Some, like
myself are very interested but the primary problem is no one awake
on the east side of the pond at the right times!
I have seen signals strong enough for normal CW only a few times.
JT9 would be easy and requires only about 3 dB more signal to decode
than WSPR2. I am looking for information on QSO operating procedures
for QRSS. I have only seen it used for beaconing.
I've been off MF for a while as I put up a temporary HF antenna to
work the Bouvet DXpedition and it severely messed up tuning of the
MF antenna. Now that the Bouvet trip has been aborted I will be
taking that antenna down and returning to MF as soon as I get a
reasonable weather window. I will likely be on MF for a week or so
before moving to LF.

Last nite results good but not unusual, had reports from
AA1A, KA1R, VE1YY
Transatlantic contacts seem a regular occurrence at present on MF
between the UK and N.America
Most operators are using WSPR but more CW both normal and QRSS would
be welcome like it used to be some years ago, ie real QSO mode
