The propagation favored Central America this morning and has brought a new and
a rare one — HP3AK.
Jay had a nice signal around and after SR here.
The TB season that was very fruitful is moving to an to end so it’s time to put
the long 50 MHz Yagi up.

I agree as well.
The problem for those chasing new ones is sometimes the fact that folks who
already worked, confirmed the entity that was accepted by DXCC Desk are still
calling and often stealing the chance from their fellow amateurs who need that
DX.
Generally they have the strongest signals
Anton,
Almost all YBs on 160m are working FT8.
Worked YB1TJ, YB2DX, YF5RFU, YB9AY, YB1BA, YB4IR.
The only CW QSO was in 2013 with YC0LOW (SK)
Good luck

HI Pete,
I use Russian B1B vacuum relays for all RF switching, for high power 160m
switching B2B vacuum relays are recommended. Hope you can get them there.
Good luck.

Certainly the skip has favored Northern paths for the last several days.
We worked three Alaska stations since Friday - NL7S and KL7J on FT8 and KL7SB
on CW in the contest.
With only one CW QSO in KL7KY in 2013 it was an amazing adventure. KL7 was a
new one for Helen!
Hawaii was not that easy but

HI Jeff and Miriam,
Great effort and wonderful results making a lot of people happy by your family
project.
You have made our family happy this Summer by giving us a new country on 6
meters - Canada!
Keep up the good work.
We enjoyed reading your 160m book.
Best wishes from our ham radio family.
Just a short story for this FT-8 vs CW/SSB discussion.
We, with Helen UR5WA, have been waiting for QSL card from VR2XAN for 160m QSOs
in CQWWCW 2017.
Two direct requests both with IRC and $$$ have been sent but no answer.
Tried some Italian assistance - same result.

This is not always the case. I have noticed long openings to Caribbean during

The special site or software are not needed.
The contest loggers,, TR4W in our case, show the SR/SS times after the prefix
is typed into the callsogn window. For sure most of the general QSO loggers
have this option.

The problem of pile-up distribution is even more complex since there will be
four simultaneous African DXPeditions 3C, TJ, TN and TY. Therefore some
coordination between team leaders is needed. The good example of almost perfect
solution was VK0/FT4J case.

Last night has brought a new one - 4S7AYG. Roman UR0MC was at the key. He had a
strong signal on 80 m also.
I expected to get another new one - TZ4AM since Jeff had a good signal in KN29

JT modes were originally designed for VHF (59 MHz and up).
No reason to use them on HF and especially on Top Band.
We will not pay attention to those playing the childish FT8 toys on HF.
3C0L showed us the proper way.

HI Stein,
What my good old friend Saulius wants to say is that there's no chance to work

TZ4AM spots anymore.
On the other hand, we have worke

Wrong.
Both in SSB and AM cases the operator's skills and abilities are involved.
Even more of those are needed on CW.
On those JT modes an operator is just a computer accessory.

Dear friends,
I am using K3 for remote operation. Recently we experience the increase of

Despite of having 7AH battery as a PS buffer, sometimes when the electricity is

This requires the trip to the remote site.

ET7L issue has nothing to do with remote operation. It was from Ethiopia
authorised by local officials.
The reason for not recognising it has nothing to do with ham radio.
SV2RSG is another example.
