GW4VXE's Station Diary

Notes from my ham radio adventures

Apr 25 2026; SF=146, A=9, K=1


From the east coast, 2m is going well. I was pleased to work Dan M0MST in the Cotswolds on 2m FT8. I'm guessing he was beaming east originally as when I called him, he came well up. Also nice to work TM8DW in JO00 on 2m. Not often I work that far on 2m with the vertical. Looking at the QRZ entry from TM8DW, it's a Marconi Day station, but more significantly, F4FET is involved, who always has a good signal on 2m.

A bit more than usual on 2m so it was nice to make a few QSOs.

Worked a handful of stations in the UKEI CW contest on 7 and 14 MHz in the evening.
