Topband: Wednesday CW DX Activity Night

[List Mail]

I came up on air around my sunrise today 2000z and heard E71A, and an SV9 station (which I need) who was working EU stations that I could not hear. I went back to bed.

Yesterday evening I worked several stations in USA and JA, but conditions were really marginal, although I was hitting a couple of US west coast RBN quite hard.

The tower project is almost complete with about 28 m up. I became impatient and put a couple of top loading wires on it and a temporary L-match at the base so I could try it out. The top loaded vertical I have been working with (22 m high) has been removed as the new tower was detuning it. The dipole just does not cut it for DX in current conditions.

I am hoping to work a bit of EU before that opportunity closes late this month.

Well after a few very poor days, it looks like DX Propagation on 160m has
now improved . . .

So hopefully we'll see some Activity tomorrow night !
