I understand the rules and wish to enter the contest.

I get better luck with USB on upper channels. Earlier today I got a really good S9+10 contact with someone from South Dakota on 27530 USB.

I just managed to grab a contact from division 22, French Guyana. From where I am, most of the time Europe shuts down while South America opens up towards the evening.

I gabbed a bit with Craig in Daytona. He comes in loud and proud up here when the afternoon ends.

I don't know if you guys heard this Italian fellow on freeband. He comes on with this unusual seductive sexy voice. I don't remember his callsign but he ends his calls to QSY with "go go go go". I had him on speakers the other day and my wife was wondering what the hell kind of frequencies I was...

Squeezed in a few contacts today. I logged my first division 347, in Curaçao. I got Craig in Daytona. He was coming in loud and clear. I also got my usual fix of division 14 and 26 as well. All in all, a good day considering I don't have much time to spare. Going to grab some grub and chat...

Busy with work, so only time to work local SSB contacts once skip calms down later in the evening. I am blessed with regional activity, and I have the distinct impression that there is a new generation of 11 meter enthusiasts on the airwaves around here in Quebec. Us older folks have our...

What'd you end up buying?

Slim pickins at this time of the day. I'll be heading out west and mobile tomorrow. Dirty side down and clean side up.

I'm around. Ain't much FM on my waterfall right now. I'll be scanning USB freeband on and around 555 for now.

Didn't have much time lately with work and all. I managed to log at least one contact from France. I got some other low signal in Saskatchewan but I couldn't catch his callsign. Then I ran out of time. On the other hand, I bit the bullet and finally unlocked the IC-7300 a short while ago. Me...

Last Sunday I brought the quad-6 into the car and rode off to western Quebec for an event. I took the Oka-Hudson ferry and had a contact from France in the middle of the Ottawa river. That was a first. Arriving on the other side I stopped for a coffee in this town called Rigaud and I snagged a...

I hear you. I'm lucky to work from home 3 days a week, so making a few contacts while sitting in front of the computer with the radio on the side is pretty easy. But on the other two, at the end of the day I ain't in much shape to be grabbing the microphone either. Band has been dead as...

I was aware of that channel, but I never got anything off of it for the few times I scanned it on FM. Maybe I should give it another shot! Otherwise, it looks like it's going to be another quiet day.

Sad to say, but conditions ain't right at the moment for 11 meters, from the great lakes towards the eastern seaboard. On the other hand, I'm getting some good local contacts. The 'ole gang comes out at night. Mostly...

Yesterday I had a QSO with a chap in Motera, Italy while I was driving around on highway 40. That was a nice surprise. Today looks like a geomag storm is interfering and things have quieted down on my end.

Was out and about in my car with the 980SSB on 27385 LSB earlier today and this guy from Amsterdam Netherlands was the strongest signal coming through. Didn't have much time for QSOs today, though. Otherwise there seems to be a bit less propagation around here, but conditions on paper still...

Rolling in this morning. I hear Germany and France on 385. Or maybe I should sing "I see London, I see France..." :sneaky:

Logged a contact near Helsinki, Finland on 27395 LSB, and Rouen, France 27660 USB afterwards. Conditions are starting to fade on my end, though.

Band is wide open. I'm east of Montreal and plenty of stations are blowing smoke on my station. Logged a few easy contacts. 73
