sorry!

This morning (in Holland) many SSB around 3725.
On 3880 I receive many stations, but speaking to fast for me...
Now 09.10 hours in The Netherlands I still receive stations on 3880.
Of course now not strong....

This morning good signals from France on 3550 and 3590.
And now (9.00 hours) good signals from the U.K. on 3615.

AM greetings,

Yep I heard you guys yakking last night. You had great signals.  Unfortunately, until I work out the Viker's issues, I'm QRT on AM.  :(  I can't do anything with it until the new 6AQ5 clamper tube arrives. I'm getting desparate. I was going to put off fixing the Scout until the Viking II was done. But, I'm going to take a look at it tonight, and see if I can get it going this weekend, so I can at least put out a signal.

I was listening as I was working around the shack.  It sounded like everyone was having a fun time.

Your rig will run fine without a clamper. Mine is out right now because the 1 meg pot is shot. Just don't lose drive or the finals will glow red.

Henk:

I've listened for you guys on 3705 several times in the last week. I heard F6AQK on morning but could not break in. Several other nights the band was poor and I could only heard weak carriers. I listened last night since I was hearing many strong signals from Europe. Unfortunately, there was a stateside SSB QSO on 3706. Will be listening this weekend.
