Title: 15 Meters Working
Post by: Pete, WA2CWA on December 22, 2013, 03:03:08 PM
This morning from 11 AM EST on, decent conditions on 15 AM looking West. At one point there were 5 separate AM QSO's between 21.415 and 21.440. Heard nothing from across the pond.

Yes, 15M AM was buzzing yesterday around 1700Z.  I listened to Paul KW7Y working an EA station, both of whom were s9+ here in Albany NY.  Paul tried but I don't think any other European stations responded.  It would be nice to foster more European activity on 15M AM.  There sure is plenty on 10M AM but conditions have been sagging on 10M lately.

Why not just more world-wide activity on 15 meters AM?

It's open for DX today. Heard GW3TMP working KW7Y on 21414 about 30 minutes ago.

Went up to 21440 and called CQ and had a nice chat with W7NGA in Washington state. Signed out and was called by ZF1DJ. He was booming in from the Caymans.

Currently hearing AM QSOs on 21420 and 21386.

I was on and worked several stations in CA and FL. Prop map right now, 3:12 PM EST, shows 15 meters the best band for the U.S. to work the world. SFI=215, A=6, K-1, MUF=83 MHz

I heard (actually didn't hear) you make some old buzzard transmissions.
