Sunday morning up for part 2 of the ARRL10 thought the band was pretty bad.. but receiving on the K9AY instead of the beam... oepss I was not awake a very weak UA9 was coming back
I wondered why he could copy me so well.. Then finally I saw the RX-ANT switch was on.. sorry that's why I screwed it up with ZL1BYZ.
Band was as good as it can be in December.
A lot of backscatter echoes.
About 11 local Longpath to Japan and China very strong over South America! Could work a few JA 9+ signals much stronger then morning direct path. But not so many one would expect a pile?
Since the weather was nice we decided to take a walk.
Good to have some fresh air and change the mind.
At the cost of some JA BA and possible KH?? ..
My final result Sunday evening at band close 18:00 local 19:00UT
CW only with PA and still hi SWR..
worked 60 of 100 zones
Mexico this year is counting in the sections 32 to the total! of 100 W/VE sections not easy to get them of course I got 5 XE zones
