Sounds good you had some luck because I was surprised how much activity I was hearing today. I shouted out a little but my neighbor was home all day and never went anywhere so I didn't really bear down on my system and I had piles of work waiting anyway. Never a shortage of things to do when...

Yesterday I turned on the DX2547 and could only hear activity on 40 lsb and that was basically 1 guy speaking. But that surprised me because usually for me 40 lsb is dead for me. Briefly turned on the mobile in my travel and nothing. 8:45 this morning and 38 lsb is sounding off.

Sometimes you have to laugh ! The solar site said Fair for today like yesterday and both day was worthless. But I've seen days it said poor and they actually pretty active. I'm learning to take it all with a grain of salt. I didn't hear Squat today. LOL

I haven't heard a peep out of 35 USB all day yet ! PS Went for a ride in the car & heard nothing even on the hill top. OH WELL

I've been hearing some skip lately in the mobile but have been on the go and couldn't honestly pursue it. Tomorrow I'll have the Galaxy 2547 tuned to 35 USB and keep my ears on. Good Luck to everyone PS they are talking Morning rain for around here.

I tend to agree with you about a little extra power. I like the sound of the Q6 pro but think it might not have the guts to operate in my area running on it's own steam.Only a little more experimenting might prove it. Like they say Nothing Ventured Nothing Gained !

Things are weird. Worked all day mowing and trimming because it's suppose to rain again and I was in bad need of a mowing. The solar site said poor conditions today but when the work was done I decided to run to town for a sandwich and a cappuccino. The Q6 Pro was busy on both 37 & 38 LSB but...

Tis the season for Pot Luck ! When I get some jobs finished I'll ride up to the hunting camp ( high on the mountain top ) and give it a try and if I get real ambitious I could drag up my spare Star Duster and spend a couple days. But like always the plate is full so I'm probably just teasing...

I did the steps to unlock GMRS radio on mine but haven't programed the channels in yet because I'm afraid of making a mistake and not knowing how to reverse it. I'll get there someday when I have time.

Well the Old Bones were slow moving this morning but when I finally got back upstairs this morning to get cleaned up and dressed to address the day I couldn't help but slide into the radio room. Turned on the Q6 Pro and could here Florida on 38 lsb but couldn't connect, so tried the Uniden 980...

The solar site said poor for 10-12 meters today but as I traveled I heard a bunch of activity but seems as if I had better luck making contacts with my regular 11 meter radios running a KL-200P or KL-203P as compared to my Q6 Pro running raw power. Beginning to think in this mountainous area I...

Yeah the solar site said fair for the day but I actually heard more chatter thru out the day today than I have in a while. Too busy to set at the radio but was nice to hear it sounding off when I passed by for a change.

Don't feel alone buddy. The solar site said Good for today but you couldn't tell it on my radio. Thank God spring has got me hopping along with other matters !

Wouldn't you know it, here it is Sunday and the solar site says conditions are good for today. Time tells all tales !

I just returned from a 2 day trip about 85-90 miles away and turned the mobile on for a listen a few times and didn't hear much going on. Thank God for the FM Music radio. Probably be Slim Pickens until Fall but we'll keep on trying. I have enough to keep me out of mischief. LOL

10 PM and I can still hear some traffic !

Was going to be a rainy day for most of the day and the solar site said fair so I turned on the 2547 to listen as I was taking care of business. I did hear a fair amount of traffic on 38lsb but the neighbor was home and I was doing research work on my New To Me truck. But it was refreshing to...

Had to run to the VA hospital today for a Eye exam ( annual) and on the way back I turned on the Q6 Pro and did catch some skip going on but couldn't get a answer. But all is not lost I guess, you just have to hit it right.

I turned my DX 2547 on about a hour ago and could hear someone talking on 38 lsb but sounded way-way off in the distance. I guess better than Hiss but nothing you could work. Oh well spring has sprung so lots to do and when I need a time out I just jump on the motorcycle and go for a Energy...
