GW4VXE's Station Diary

MM contest still going on this morning. I'd put the DX Commander back up this morning as the wind had really dropped over night. Tuned around 20m working a few stations that 'caught my ear'. Best DX was VK1A who sounded fluttery - not surrprising looking at the A and K this morning.

A new PSK Reporter alert on DXChrono means I can readily see stations I'm hearing on any band, but I've set it up to monitor for 10, 6 and 2m. That's already helped provide a contact with Keith G8IXN on 6m and David MW0UAA in Brecon on 2m. The path to David is always full of aircraft reflections.

15m had pretty much had it by the time I got to the shack in the evening - but 20m was still ok to South America and a few North Americans coming through.

The 10m FT8 SDR has been very quiet for the last few days with only a handful of spots. Pretty sure it's still working ok!
