Happiness is an envelope full of QSL cards from the Bureau showing up in the
13-Aug-04 mail. I am not usually that impressed with SWL cards but one got
my attention from DE1WDX for my RTTY QSO with Tom, K3PSK. At first glance I
did not pay much attention to the band but when I check my log the RTTY QSO
was with K3PSK on 1.808 MHz. I did a double check and the German SWL card
showed 1.8 MHz. Not bad for 100 watts and an Inverted-L antenna! Per the
SWL card Peter Uhren, DE1WDX (aka DL2KUW) heard me 449 on his FT-980 and a
delta loop antenna. Just filled out an SWL card for Peter. Too bad he does
not have an email address posted on QRZ.
There is hope for RTTY DX on the 160 meter band.
