December 27, 2011Ī 38.5 C fever kept me home today, also because my voice was almost gone. A QSO between Mexico and Croatia, heard in Taiwan! Radio keeps being amazing. Couldn't work him, but heard XE2/K6PT and he worked him. 40 meters is also rocking: heard a Norwegian station two days ago, this time it was 9A9A from Croatia with booming signals. Worked him easily, so I am making it all around Taiwan on 160 meters. He is BV8BC from Taitung and he was stronger than BV100ROC. Still worked him and then afterwards BQ100 came on. Later that night BV100ROC was active from Taipei, but he was weak. A whopping 36 kilometers, but he heard me. So when I heard the booming signal from BU2AQ in early evening I answered him. I've been reading about top loading 5 meter verticals, but my CG3000 auto-tuner tunes 160 meters without problems when I use my 10 meter vertical. Never had a single QSO on that band, even back in Holland. Now that I know I can get a signal out on 80 meters it was time to try 160 meters. His keying was quite slow, so I could take him by hand, not the computer. At night finally a 160 meter QSO outside Taiwan: JR6EA in Okinawa was the lucky one. December 30, 2011ĭid some CW QSOs today and slipped in an RTTY and psk31 one too. OK7FL was the last one, in CW on 15 meters. Brought my total QSO count for 2011 to 396.
