Re: Topband: T32C and 3D2R

I worked T32C at 1am EDT last night/this morning (0500z). A simple inverted L with 16 radials 62.5 long. They could hear me a lot better than I could them (me at 1kw) but I answered their CQ. They didn't have many takers. I have yet to hear 3D2R on 160 when spotted. Worked them easily on 80m.

T32C was quite easy copy here in SW VA just before SR. 3D2R came up out of the mud here just around SR. 73, Joe K2XX On 10/3/2011 10:07 PM, Mark Lunday wrote: > Similar observations from US East Coast. > > I was able to work T32C and 3D2R on 40 CW and 80 CW during my gray-line this > morning

What a difference a day makes. Signals down on the upper bands on both DXpeditions yesterday. What was 599 copy on Sunday afernoon was now S1 on 15, 17, and 20. But MUCH better on 160. Snagged T32C on 3rd call during my grayline to East Coast this morning on 160. Also worked KH2/N2NL on 80. S

Similar observations from US East Coast. I was able to work T32C and 3D2R on 40 CW and 80 CW during my gray-line this morning. Simple inverted L and 300 watts from NC. Excellent ops on their end, I am sure, was a big factor. Pileups were there when I heard them, but nothing like on the higher b

Jorge, Welcome to the club. I am amazed by the difference in attention that has been given to 160 by T32C and 3D2R. It appears that based on the missing container with more equipment the 160 and 80 positions are shared...or have interaction so only one can be on. IMHO it would make more sense t

Hello, hope you guys good QSO´s with this stations. T32C is very active and doing the things very well. I was surprised to hear them, and that they heard me, 2 days ago. I want to know what antennas system they have, because when they copied CX they switch in my direction and the signal
