Worked VK9YY on 80m CW this morning (3515 lsn 1 up) - the gang managed to get the Battle Creek Special up a couple of hours after they got off the plane before VK9 sunset! Despite having no Beverage,

Author: sire@omen.com.au (Steve Ireland)
Date: Sat, 2 Jan 1999 05:56:21 +0800
Everyone has a couple of countries that they chase that always seem to elude their outstretched keying hand - in my case, Korea and Romania. Yesterday 31/01/98 DS4CNB was a solid RST 569 on 1823.8 at

Author: sire@omen.com.au (Steve Ireland)
Date: Thu, 7 Jan 1999 06:05:07 +0800
In the recent Stew Perry contest, RW2F was one of only a handful of Eu stations audible here - in fact, he was about the best signal from Eu. On this basis, the Spitfire sure sounds a good antenna...

Unfortunately the situation with the ZL9 on 160m that Rys describes also applies to VK6 - a maximum of twenty minutes of nighttime 'opportunity' from 1630 to 1652Z ONLY. There may be other parts of t

For those who need Saipan/Mariana Islands on 160m, look out for KH2K/AH0 who is planning to go back to Saipan during the first week of February. I worked Kazu just before Christmas from Saipan and he

Norbert VU2RBQ was calling CQ on 1.82443, at 2126Z with no takers at RST559, listening 'up', today. To let him know he was geting out, I worked him by Txing up 1 KHz. QSL is via DJ9RB. Chang BV4ME ha

The CQ 160 was a fun but very noisy experience this year from the southern hemisphere, with heavy QRN for most of the time over S9. The only way to operate the contest was to put the AF gain at maxim

Topband has taken a bit of lift here with strong European signals most mornings at sunrise here (around 2104Z). Propagation has been less 'spotlighty' than previous weeks, with signals coming in at t

It has been fascinating to read the various observations on 160m propagation this season, especially when read in conjunction with the insight offered by Bob Brown, NM7M. Thanks for you contributions

Terrible conditions and an uphill battle best describes the view of the 1998 Stew Perry from here. The first night brought only two North American QSOs, in the shape of K7RAT and N6RO (although I thi

John Mitchell's idea of a Worked All Grids award sounds a very interesting idea and if not the basis for scoring for the Stew Perry Topband Distance, maybe could be used to breath new life as a multi

TY8A was a 459 signal into Perth today (11/11/98) from before 2100 until my sunrise (2110Z). It was very frustrating to hear the blokes working well into JA, which usually means a QSO with VK6 is pos
