Re: [Elecraft] OT: 15 meters last night

[Victor Rosenthal 4X6GP]

At about 0045z on Tuesday morning (your Monday night) I called CQ on 17m 
CW. For the next hour, I had a solid run of stations in North America. I 
worked stations in Maine, Florida, VE7, Southern CA, etc. All over the 
continent, with many 599s. I probably could have continued, but I wanted 
to sleep a bit before getting back up (it was 0445 local time when I 
quit). I do run high power, but my antenna is a rotary dipole.
Unfortunately, though I worked stations in MT, UT, ID, and CO, nobody in 
WY called me.

wrap it up and get to bed. (Not. Much DX worked on CW.)

Anyone else notice?

About 8 pm here in southern Utah I was listening to W1AW code practice 
on 10 meters.   Good strong signal - received on a ground-mounted trap 
vertical antenna.  And I could hear a bunch of 10 meter beacon stations.

Wayne,

Last night 15 m was fantastic from EL29.  The ancient K3 bagged:

VU2
EX
8Q7
AP
BY
and a host of EU, JA, VK, etc.

I'm running 100 w with a 3 ele triband yagi at about 60 ft.

Re: [Elecraft] OT: 15 meters last night

[David Herring]

Yep, I noticed here in New Mexico.  ;-)

Slightly higher on 12 meters I saw a station in Kenya doing FT8 that was on 
nearly all day and up until bedtime here last night.  Converting to Africa 
time, it had to have been 4 or 5 in the morning there, which means the band 
stayed open for them essentially all night.

I didn’t drop down to 15,but there was  lot of EU stations I worked during the 
CWT event on 20 last night-hadn’t heard that many that strong for a long time.
