JW was running 400 watts and a big yagi. Still hearing many 57-59 sigs out of EU, including GW3TMP on 29010.

Still hearing many 57-59 sigs out of EU, including GW3TMP on 29010. I heard you working TMP. Almost broke in. A little less neighborhood QRN would have made you OK copy here. Gs still coming in now 15:15 loco time 29.1. This did not happen during the last two cycles on 29xxx AM. Title: Re: N7JW on 29000 Post by: Steve - K4HX on September 30, 2012, 10:10:22 PM Indeed. I was hearing them (mostly western UK, Wales and Ireland) still coming thru as late at 3:30 ET (1930 UT). I was off for a bike ride and missed the Pacific prop at out sunset. Anything good?

I came home and built a 15m dipole. Go figure. ;D Title: Re: N7JW on 29000 Post by: W2VW on October 01, 2012, 05:56:22 AM Nothing special at sunset from Pacific heard and I was not calling. Plenty o KH6 on ssb,
Most EU openings on 29xxx lasted only a couple hours last year at my location Todd. Title: Re: N7JW on 29000 Post by: Steve - K4HX on October 01, 2012, 08:00:20 AM IIRC, the openings on 10 started a little later last years, so the days were shorter. I was in the UK last week. It remained light there until about 7-7:30 PM local. Not for long! AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
