WAESSB / 10m week report WSPR

WAESSB    Sunday  on 10m only. hard to work 25 Q  thats the minimum  QSO count needed score 1 point  for our district competition.   Only outside EU QSO's count. I was running low power and a dipole. Poor signals  mostly S.A.  Later in the afternoon 24 QSO S&P needed 1 more for a point but signals seemed to fade. WD4Z t he only N-A weak heard . But when  returned after dinner surprise!  some strong Stateside signals on the band suddenly. KD4D   K1LZ  9+10  ! 28470 PH 2012-09-09 1654 PA0O   59  0025   KD4D    59  2191 28411 PH 2012-09-09 1700 PA0O   59  0026   K1LZ     59  1819 28482 PH 2012-09-09 1717 PA0O   59  0027   VY2ZM 59  2224 then had to QRT   a good sign  Stateside signals on 10M  SH5 can handle the 25QSO easy..

28 back to life ... 1 day only

Saturday 1/9/2012 morning 28MHz propagation map including  EU ZL (not here) RUS RADIO RTTY   several JA contacts 28MHz  In the evening 28 showed remarkable propagation. FO4BM  around 23 local.  Weak on the dipole .  Missing my Stepper.   XE1KCS/B EK09   OA4B 28.200  heard Very weak heard  ZL4TEN 28.228  over SA  just realised to ZL is always longpath.. Need to get  a 2nd mast again for the Steppir. High expectations for the Sunday morning 28MHz opening to VK/ZL but only "normal" propagation left  with VK2KRR and VK6DZ copied My procedure to handle a picture  in windows With  ALT + PrtSC key the  active window is copied to the clipboard. But  using ctrl + V  does not place the bitmap image to this blog.  I tried MWsnap  to select and copy a part of the screen. Then this picture is saved somewhere  to  your user files I...

ARRL CONTESTS 2012

ARRL RU RTTY   7/8 Januar 2012 ARRL CW             18/19 Februari 2012 ARRL SSB              3/4   March 2012 I was active in those ARRL contests this year  thought to have send my log ? But I can not find my call in the results  Not  very high scores but  complete lost in cyber space?  

D64K good signal 160M and 80M

D64K Good copy  early morning  and good operation on 160m CW I was in the RDA-test and  heard the pile. Last time they had a good signal at 80M CW but my antenna had a problem I could not TX, it always worked good until then.. then they had storm damage and went QRT/X  a few days. This morning a good signal in the QSB peaks  f.b. operation fast QSO's  good ears.    D64K 160m CW   D64K 80m CW   also 80m easy just few calls     I  bit of surprise since 160m has been very poor for weeks. WSPR  160m  did not see any DX  >4000km long time. 80M is still good.  2012-08-18 20:20   PA0O   3.594131   -19   0   JO33hg   5   VK2UB   QF59vk   16248   62   2012-08-19 04:28   WA7KGX   3.594167   -18   0   CN85no   501  ...

All Italian evening at 6m D64K 5H3EE / Perseïdes?

D64K  sometimes just Q5  50115 USB   in JO33hg      many many Italians calling  lot of splatter on D64K by some very broad Italian signals. No chance here for D64K with this weak signal in phone. 5H3EE  better signal  50.096 CW  539 real    working up  but  most south EU  no chance behind the  S-EU wall  tonight.  http://www.qsl.net/pa0oos/recall/5h3ee.mp3 D64K never peaked  it stayed a ghosty TEP signal no change for non Italians tonight. BTW  did anyone see  Perseïdes meteorites ?   I wached several clear nights Yesterday I saw 2 in about 15minutes time. I think the Perseïds shower must have dried out. I have not seen  extra meteorites  in this August period for several years now. N1MM  logger recently got unstable and loses the CAT connection with the K3 I do not know why  must be W7  in combination with the USB...
