Topband: Wednesday activity report

[uy0zg]

Hi

I also didn’t manage to open the season in the USA today.

RBN readings are almost non-existent.

N4XD heard and called me (I saw his comment in the dx cluster).

But you RON noticed that your CQ was not seen by any RBN in Europe. Even 
England...

These are the nuances of the conditions. Conditions are better in one 
direction and worse in the other. This happens often.

So don't scold me too much :-)))))))

The final result for the night is poor, interrupted sleep:-((((((((

At sunset I listened to KH8/AA7JV.

Beveridge 240 m.


I didn't hear. The best contenders were HA9RE and UT5UGR. They called 
constantly. Dima has a very good indoor rx antenna. I don't know what rx 
the HA9RE has. But the guys are great anyway.
