Title: A local station on Ten Meters? Post by: pe1mph on December 16, 2024, 04:16:41 AM Hello AM Lovers,
Yesterday, Sunday 15 dec, my wife and I drinking tea in our livingroom. On TV a Football game FC Twente - FC Groningen I am happy, FC Twente has won.... But evenso I had my Kenwood R 5000 on, not to loud on the background. Some times I turn the tuning knob. I heard many AM stations from the Usa, yes plenty! But one man were so strong by me..... Hi, hi.... I have take a look true our window, perhaps he is near our house.... hi, hi... ::) Who I heard very good, strong on 29030 khz: Chuck K1KW! The S-meter on my Kenwood were standing a few times over S9! Incredible so good to hear Chuck voice, yes he can talk.... But I like it, he told about his antenna with a boomlength from 6 meters. When Chuck were Off Air, I heard more stations on Ten Meters. Sorry I have not note all calls, but.... On 29010 I heard evenso an AM station, but that signal has many fading. I am sure about his call sign: N3TBW, for me a new call on Ten Meters. Oh by the way I have already sent Chuck a little recording. Made by my mobile phone. A friend from me, Marcel, from the Island Ameland made evenso a little recording. Greetings, Henk / pe1mph Dokkum / The Netherlands Title: Re: A local station on Ten Meters?

Yes, sometimes very good conditions... Last Monday afternoon I heard no AM on Ten meters. Evenso the repeaters on 29.620 and 29.640 were very weak by me. But who I heard later 'suddenly' on +/- 29.002 khz in AM? Tim WA1HLR, but not strong! Very strange.... because I did only hearing him, no others in AM.... I made a little recording with my mobile phone. Sorry, the quality is not good..... because his signal were weak. Greetings, Henk / pe1mph |
