Around our sunrise on Saturday, Sept. 11, we worked JA0FSB for our first JA on Topband this season. This was on FT8, with a couple of other JA decoded. Tried some CQ's on CW with no luck.
Our first JA of the season QSO has come on earlier and later dates in previous years, sometimes even in late August. This summer I've had to leave early for tower work many days so wasn't QRV as much as in previous years. Regulars VK2WF, VK3HJ, VK6GX and ZL1AZ have come through in recent weeks as well, and the few evenings we've been active have found some good propagation to Europe. 73/Jon Jon P.
