Re: Topband: DX Conditions Last Night
Sorry about that Steve . . I heard a few people calling that I couldn't quite pull out of the noise - there was a lot of QSB on signals. 73 Roger G3YRO -Original Message- From: VE6WZ Steve [mailto:ve...@shaw.ca] Sent: 08 January 2018 16:46 To: Roger Kennedy Cc: daraym...@iowatelecom.net; topband@contesting.com Subject: Re: Topband: DX Conditions Last Night Roger, Last night you had a very solid signal (579) on qsb peaks but you could not copy my calling.

Re: Topband: DX Conditions Last Night
I worked a few stations on FT8 in Colorado and the PJ7. I did not hear too much on CW when I listened. Nice to see the band open at least for a bit to EU!

Re: Topband: DX Conditions Last Night
Roger, You had a solid 569 signal into New Mexico last night, despite frequent static crashes. Wonder what your power and antenna(s) were? Here, I was running 1500W into a 26m vertical (w/top capacity hat) and sixty 1/4-wave radials. Listening on 720 ft beverage. Signals during the hour-long opening were up and down, but worked several EU stations and Ukraine. Fun! 73, Jim w8zr Sent from my iPhone _ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband
Re: Topband: DX Conditions Last Night
Yes good to work you on Saturday night Dave . . . And heard you again last night too, working a few stations. Some of the Eastern European guys calling you weren't that strong, so you did well to pull them through! 73 Roger G3YRO -Original Message- From: daraym...@iowatelecom.net [mailto:daraym...@iowatelecom.net] Sent: 08 January 2018 06:18 To: Roger Kennedy; topband@contesting.com Subject: Re: Topband: DX Conditions Last Night Just shut down but conditions were go to EU from here in the US Midwest (Iowa) again this evening. . .but not as good as Saturday evening. 73 . . .Dave, W0FLS -Original Message- From: Roger Kennedy Sent: Sunday, January 07, 2018 5:49 PM To: topband@contesting.com Subject: Topband: DX Conditions Last Night Great to hear the band open from Europe into the Midwest USA last night . . .

Re: Topband: DX Conditions Last Night
Roger, heard you under a din of NA signals. Couldn't pull you through well enough to call you, but you are right, conditions were quite good, got HA8, DL2, UR0 and SM3 with 100w to an inverted L up about 35' and a folded counterpoise. maybe tonite!
