Author: sire@omen.com.au (Steve Ireland)
Date: Sat, 9 May 1998 08:55:59 +0800
Like a lot of the 160m gang, I was listening to 3B7RF on 40m from 2200Z, hoping for that magical 'QSY NW to 1826.5.' Time went on and the QSY finally came - unfortunately at 2308Z, over ten minutes a

In my time as a serious 160m operator from VK6 - clocking up my fourth year - once mid April comes around the 160m conditions into Europe usually die a sudden death until about August. However, this

Author: sire@omen.com.au (Steve Ireland)
Date: Sun, 17 May 1998 06:13:49 +0800
After chasing 3B7RF for some days at around my sunrise - and on one occasion hearing them over an hour after that event - serious steps were called for. The guys were obviously battling severe QRN an

For those interested in working Dick YJ0ADJ, I worked him last night simplex on 1827.8, after he was QSX in the JA window. It seems that if his QSX frequency goes quiet, YJ0ADJ checks his own frequen

For those with trees and big saggy 160m dipoles: The best (only) way I have found to keep a dipole halyard running smoothly over or up a tree is to use stainless or galvanized steel halyards, straigh

Just a note to say thank you to Bob and Rob at FO0FI/FO0FR for their excellent low band operating. For those who have not been out in the Pacific, it isn't an easy place to work radio - often lots of

Perhaps someone could tell 3A/DL7RJ he was heard in VK6 this morning around sunrise about five minutes before sunrise (2213Z on 10/03/97) at RST 349 . Unfortunately, there was a European pile-up and

Dear Tom, Carl and all, I just wanted to say how much I have enjoyed the 'cut and thrust' of the debate (and how much I have learnt) and the generally good spirit in which it has been carried out in.

Those who have found that putting a vertical/low angle antenna on 160m improves their DX performance and think that this is the answer to everything/everybody should take heed from old campaigners li

Just a short note, mainly in reply to Paul, VK3AJJ's posting. The most important comparison I make when I put up an new 160m antenna is how well it stacks up against Mike VK6HD's signal with his inve

You would think it would be easy to work S79 from VK6, but it apparently isn't. My sunrise is currently about 2150Z and S79MX usually comes on the band about twenty minutes later on 1827KHz - about 5

I know we all love it, but what a STRANGE band is the Topband - and what strange and interesting conditions we have lately, especially in the Stew. I decided to do the contest in two 'bites' - kick o
