Zaterdag 10 november Veel gezien veel om's getroffen  was zeer de moeite waard. Een opvallend zelfbouw project was de MCHF  SDR tranceiver 3 kleine juweeltjes  van zelfbouw ,met verbazing gekeken zo mooi gemaakt. Schitterend in  glanzend aluminium behuizing Op zelfgemaakte freesmachine van PA0KN de foto is helaas niet zo goed.

But also FT8 did decode good  the very multy path APS signal of OZ2OE  at my side not at OZ2OE low bands  bit low  no more SS VK2DX at 80m copied last days but  XE2YWB  DL82  in FT8 not easy very well copied here to -6  but had to QRO to get heard for ATN 60m and AA7A DM52  West-Coast 2 days ago  0144 -20 0.8 2067 # CQ XE2OCM DL95...

 also FT8 heard and called  160m TI2CC    good low band propagation too  but only receive As our Dutch soccer coach Van Gaal said: am I so good or are the others so bad  ;-) In those days we had a great team but that is long ago. Now we have a woman EC champion soccer team . The gentle man are way over the hill.  Well I tried CW   for  3C1L  160m  up 1 and VK9CZ 12M   CW  but  was not heard  the 12m antenna is a tuned  30/60/80 sloping 3 bandder Even in FT8 mode 160m   Beverage rx  just a few N.A. do reply  like one way propagation. lot of activity FT8 just a  few CW signals Next Call sign Worked Date/Time Band Mode Freq QSL Details PA0O CU3AN 2017-10-31 12:09:00 12M FT8 24.91562 AZORES Details PA0O VK5BC 2017-10-31 09:02:00 12M FT8 24.91500 AUSTRALIA Details PA0O JA5MHD 2017-10-31 08:41:15 12M FT8 24.91562 JAPAN Details PA0O VK6YM 2017-10-3...
