From "spaceweather" site yesterday, there was a chart showing that the peak in now going to be from Jan. - Oct. 2024.

BC Coyote I am just south of Steve 999 about 40 miles, we have talked a couple of times when the conditions are good for us. We both were working S. Korea and Asiatic Russia late yesterday afternoon. I'll be listening for you in the late afternoons on back-scatter. Larry - 2SD178

Always USB and mostly find them calling on T-5 then moving off to another freq. Mostly .490 to .610. (0's) work the best.

Discovered a new one yesterday, lots of chatter on 27.300 usb, at which I talked to a mobile in Japan. I then remembered that I had also talked to a station from there back in Feb., - so that's one that can be listened for in the Asia area.

Things really came to life yesterday around 4:00 pm (west coast). Lots of Indonesia stations coming across the Pacific (worked 7), then there was Japan (worked 2), also worked one from S. Korea and Taiwan. Then the last one was to a good friend that I have talked to for the last 2 cycles from...

Try baking soda and water.....

338DA/0C027 - now on .580 usb. in the Marquesas Islands. Really good conditions again today for the Pacific. He is making contacts to east coast also.

325DA/0 is now active on .610 usb. I think he started yesterday. He was making lots of contacts in the afternoon into S. America and N. America. I have worked this division many years ago. Rotuma Youtube video

Humm - I wonder how it is that I have talked to several stations in S. Africa on 27 through the last cycle and have had several people tell me from there, that 27 is their call channel? But I guess it doesn't really matter, I'll just carry on talking to them in S. Africa on 27..........

I do believe that 27 USB is a S. Africa call channel and that ch 28 USB might be for the UK.

I know that there lots of people that know this, but a little more info might help. There as been more and more people operating from EU in the 40 channel area - mostly channel's 35 to 40 on the LSB (but don;t be afraid to check out USB too}. Also remember to check the "0"s also, like - 370...

Had a nice qso with gentleman from the UA Huka area. Location just above French Polynesia. His call was 338 RC 101. Where Are The Marquesas Islands? The Marquesas’ archipelago is located 932 miles (1,500 km) northeast of the island of Tahiti and spread out over 12 islands, of which only six are...

Hello Jeff, Well it is always a pleasure to chat with you, we don't get the chance to often to make it happen. But I am sure we well be doing it again........ Take care down there Jeff... 73's Larry

A local here had one, but took it down. Not sure if his was a 8 or maybe a 4, but either way he didn't like it at all. It was hard to tune and he discovered that when he transmitted on the vertical, there was lots of power coming back down the horizontal feed line. So he has it for sale and...

Well Captain Kilowatt sure hope those blood cots go away. Probably be on "blood thinners" before long, like I am now, with my AFib. I too now have shortness of breath, down to 30% lung capacity now..... because of my Bronchitis over the years...... So be very careful and I am sure your wife...

I have two towers that are 55' apart - one with a 1 -10K and the other with a /-/-/-/-/ horizontal, no interference from them at that distance.

I was fortunate to be able to get all of my brass free for many years. Rifle range + gravel pits around here always had plenty of brass laying around. I sold over 2000 brass casings (30-06) to local scrap yard one day. I also made a $40 sale to one gentlemen on some 300 Weatherby Magnum casing...

Well Chris, there's not really to much more to show for now, but when this cycle is over then maybe I will have a few more "new" countries added. I had a chance to get a contact from Qtar a week ago, but one of them guys on the east coast and his 1.5 kw took over - sure wish they would outlaw...
