The AM Forum

Hello AM Lovers,

Today we were again qrv from the North of The Netherlands.
We, PD4VOS and I (pe1mph), have made again nice qso's in AM!

This afternoon I heard PD4VOS already talking on 29000 khz.
Later I heard Chuck K1KW with a good signal on 29000 khz.
I listen for a long time to him, he were talking with many stations.

Later I worked on Ten in AM:
- 29000 khz. K1KW: Chuck, less difference between both ant., max. S9+
- 29080 khz. W2VW: David, very nice audio, max. S8
- 29030 khz. W1AEX: George, conditions were abruptly gone, max. S9

And I heard on:
- 29020 khz. K4HX: Steve, but on that freq. were more AM stations working
- 29000 khz. KB8U: Russ, talking with PD4VOS, but he didn't heard me.....
- 29100 khz. It seem there were some USA stations talking, fair signals: S3

A pity we could not have a long AM talk this afternoon.
Conditions were fast changing today on Ten.
But lucky: we did have NO contesters on the AM part of Ten mtrs!

Thanks all for the (short) nice qso on Ten,

I think the stations you heard on 29100 were N7JW and WA4NFY, I heard them there (don't remember the exact time, it was between 1800 and 2000 UTC). They started out on 28997 then moved up to 29100. N7JW was blasting in here in Pennsylvania, but I couldn't hear WA4NFY at all.

Thanks for your patience today Henk. Conditions were not the best. I've heard you better.

Shelby,
Last days I heard more stations talking on 29100 khz in AM.
It 'sounding like' mostly the same AM lovers on that freq.
But yesterday I could hear, I am sure, 2 talking in AM with weak to fair signals.
Maybe they use 29100 for a 'home-frequency'....

Greetings and a good DX on Ten,
