Topband: Activity

Didn't know about the FT8 activity on 1836, though I certainly knew about the 1826.5+ lineup.  Did anyone get them digitally from NA?

Conditions were moderately good last evening (NA time) to Europe.  I got on at my SS and then again later in the evening and put 32 EUs (CW) in the log including some call signs I’ve not heard from in several years.  The A50BOC crew have been active and are trying hard on the low bands.  This morning they were QRV on 1826.5 (QSX up 1) and 1836 on FT-8 somewhat taking turns with modes.  About four NA stations that I’m aware of had success on CW.  They were also on 7002 and 60m (FT-8 I believe). . .so they’ve been busy and are clearly making a serious effort.  They have been working on improving their Beverages.  Good luck to all who need them.           73. . .Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays. . . Dave, W0FLS in Iowa
