fantastic long opening
Starting 9:57   144.311 UR3EE
12:47  last signal heard R3KK  529 CW cqcqc KO90  did not hear me
some very strong signals UR3EE 9++
                                        UT4UEP  9++
 and others over S9
mostly SSB

Using the  FT225RD  30W   +  3el    DK7ZB   223 3 bander
FT225 digi noise and birdies very sensitive receiver
managed to contact 9 Oekraine

had to leave     between 11:40 --- 12:47   Oekraine signals 144 still 9++
possible  LO or LN  main squares missed?
but i had to leave..

I won…

I do not know how it happend but i got one log record with empty call sign field
This was reported by TQSL when trying to upload my log to LOTW

N1MM can not remove a record with empty call field i found out.
Deleting that record is normally confirmed by N1MM
But the faulty QSO record does not remove.
Here 3 PC's  in the network running N1MM  PC3 has IC706  + XVTR  23cm
PC2  is running WSJT / WSPR with the K3 or logging N1MM
PC1 the fastest Laptop is for contest use
All PC's have N1MM  and TQSL /LOTW
Deleting a QSO that is logged by an other PC in the network is not allowed that makes sense.
To delete that record I filled in a fantasy call DE1LET   and then it can be deleted for real.
You would think:
So what, let TQSL ignore the empty record,  just update it.
That's what i did
But  when checking in LOTW  QSO's where missing just after the "empty"field
 that happened to be my season best DX of course
among  6m   several JA
50 MHz  DS4EOI      2017-06-08   9…

June 7 2017  super ES propagation  not  favoring  my QTH as usual
 JO33HG in the middle  in the eye of the ES  dx happens over my head

 17:23Z  144.300 HA8HI CQ ES 59 one time loud  but gone  ms / es
 17:32     144.300   YO3FAI  heard several times CQ

70MHz  YO HA OM OH  DL

 later 50MHz   KP4 FG    some USA  but here just a few
no reply to cq
 USA signals far better to HA OK etc  not here
Only a few crumbles of the DX  could be copied here
possible my 5 ele  is not good enough?

Most DX heard only very few QSO
ES DX if it  comes it comes in waves signals can be gone a minute later.

June 8
evening  short open to West USA
17:47 WA6OSX CM97 -10  R-06  working DL
17:51  N6ML      CM97eq       -13  working  DL

The morning very open to JA
50.276 JT65  lot of JA  heard
 just a few 2-way due volatile signals  most calls only seen once and gone
 To improve 2-way QSO   replay with report to CQ  will help


 all time NEW tadaa    made me forget all missed  DX last days
DS4EOI PM37  Korea new DXCC
…

Alleen 23cm  meegedaan

22 QSO  na vele uren
Veel activiteit in EU in deze grote contest. In Nederland slechts 2 stations op 23 !
Deze contest is blijkbaar onbekend.
Zonder ON4KST  is het maken van verbindingen  op 23cm haast uitgesloten.


VHF UHF velddag  contesthelaas net 2 dagen te laat na de goede  tropo op 23cm  nu zeer matige propagatie overal in W-EU  veel regen  in Groningen prachtig weer.

Opvallend in Nederland doet slechts een enkeling mee aan deze contest
Niemand heeft er blijkbaar interesse om verbindingen te maken op 23cm
De SG labs 23cm transverters zullen wel voor de heb aangeschaft zijn?
In Nederland met wilde regelgeving is het ook moeilijk gemaakt om antennes te plaatsen.
Alles moet kunnen maar niets mag.

Het signaal van PI4GN  ontbrak nu  op expeditie F4VSG/p  in JN39FL
Veel regen daar,  ik hoorde ze zaterdag gelijk redelijk maar ik moest QRT
Later op zaterdag avond  De antenne rotor in JN39FL met stop op noord
moest voor mij helemaal rond over zuid en daarna was het…

6m seemed  dead when  i came at the radio  early  06\\\\\\\utc  but  i saw JA was worked  from JO32  here at first  nada JA
Then 07:20  UTC sudden band opened  here too with JE6KEA  -20  first call decoded
then a lot JA  signals  JE6HJT     -13 JI4UEN     -11 JA6TEW   -11  JN4MIV    -17 JE6KEA    -13      JH4MGU   -12  JI4UEN    -12  JH4IFF    -10  JH3VJV   -9 JA9AVA     -2  JF2WXS  -18 JA5FJJ      -22
JA3EGE    -21  PM74
JR2WYD   -12       PM84   JN1JFC     -3    QM06   
relative few 2-way contacts resulting  because of the fast QSB JT65 is a magic mode  but the slow  exchange cycle of 1 minute kills most QSO's 1 minute cycle  is too slow for the  deep QSB on the fragile JA signals Responding to CQ  without report takes an extra 1 minute exchange  that was too long for most
JA calls that replied. 
Started to be more active with JT65  a lot of interesting DX  seems only to be in JT65
JT65  50MHz  50.274 shows huge activity  and real interesting DX  that is not easy heard in class…

Very good tropo over North Sea  direction N-E  last night  in  SW  all beacons normal level
  My first  LA  with new 23cm station     since 30 years..
 very strong radar sweeps but my new 23cm RX did handle it without problem
