2 nights VK5ZAG was on 160m WSPR both nights he received me at the best gray-line time coincidence?
Almost zero activity in Africa Asia S.A. I just wonder what would be possible if there where a few VK ZL Oceania active. Now almost exclusive EU and USA on WSPR Top-band!
I was on ON4KST low-band chat trying to raise some attention to the DX crowd but got almost no response. Only one HAM wanted to try it but his PC was out of order...
It is very strange that almost no one of the Top-band dxers´s pay attention to this mode. This is a real dx mode! Around the time VK5ZAG decoded me the classic DX crew could not raise any real dx using full power CW...
I just wonder why do the om's not start WSPR mode when they are in "idle" mode?????
You could go out , have dinner join your family and same time leave your dx-station in WSPR running.
The real DX'r just won't do that. They don't take WSPR serious? But WSPR is the best propagation or antenna test available for the DX interested hams. Signal reporting is much more accurate and comparative then the normal wet finger reports that are exchanged in high QRM/QRN. Further more there is no such thing as worked before in WSPR as long as there is propagation every signal is reported and stored in database for later evaluation. The best propagation research available in the history of Radio! All with low power.
Is the argument that WSPR is a complete PC controlled mode ? Correct but what is left of the DX community when all PC assisted operations in the shack are abandoned? Of course only paper logging. Switch of the PC ,DX cluster , DX-chat box. And go complete naked again....
Of course a WSPR "QSO" is something else as a man made CW QSO but for the propagation antenna test WSPR is much more effective and it can be run 24x7x365
I think WSPR is also very good for 6M some say it does not fit the magic band because of the short openings.. I doubt that, what about 160m QSB? sometimes no more then 10seconds a dx is workable.
With WSPR more propagation is catched for sure. Because only the most fanatic DX' r stay around all the time. And then go out for some absolute necessary shopping or trying to be a bit social (....) come back and find out some opening was missed...
I was on 50Mhz WSPR last summer but there is 1 problem NO ACTIVITY! just no activity or the typical DX-ham species is very conservative? Else one would be amazed by what is possible if more hams on DX-locations would run WSPR beacon mode when not in the shack.
here are the unique call reports of last week
