Hello All,
Last few days Jacek is observing slightly worse propagation...even stations from Japan
are weaker than at the beggining of his activity.
Yesterday they had serious TSUNAMI warning but fortunatelli they were doing shopping
in nearby village Rakiraki which is on higher level above the Sea ...after 2 hours they drove
back by taxi to their shack.
They will try  for Western Europe...mainly for UK to be at european SR .
Because Midway expedition will use 1826,5 kHz Jacek will stay on 1832 kHz....but
because of QRM from fishing beacons on exactly 32 he will try to be 1831,8 kHz.
QSX up 2  and for JA 1819 kHz.
They will try to move 80m vertical which is now quite far from the Sea closer to a water.
Anyway to do so they need coax which they ordered and the wind has to slow down...
last days they have storms all the time. When 80m vertical will be moved it will be also
tuned for CW...so far it is used by other Jacek SP5EAQ-3D2MJ. Be patient.
