Days 328, 329 and 330 – Another new aerial
Day #328 was very nearly the end of QSO365! It’s incredible to think that the project could fail this close to the end but it only takes some bad propagation and it could all be over. I got home in the evening … Continue reading

Days 320, 321 and 322 – Lots of JT65A reception reports
I didn’t have too many QSOs on these three days, largely because I was running some extended JT65A receive sessions which were quite interesting. On day #320 I spoke to W2WP, Mike and N4CCA, Don on 20m SSB and then … Continue reading
Days 317, 318 and 319
I worked a few RTTY stations in the early hours of day #317 on 40m carrying on with the contest from the day before, they were W3LL, VA2UP, IK4CLF, UA9OG, OM7OM, Z37M, WA2TMC, K9NR and IW1QN. In the morning I … Continue reading
