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

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
