Title: Warmup for AM Rally on 15! Post by: N4DJ on February 05, 2021, 10:29:52 AM I got on 21285 and called CQ 15 at about 1500Z today. Then moved up to 21430 and called again. WA9ZHP answered and we had a good QSO. My first AM QSO on 15 in a very very long time! 10 meters was also open but no response to my CQs on 29MHz.
Think I will try 14286 now! 73 Don N4DJ Viking Ranger II at 35 watts output Drake 2B 40 meter dipole at 60 ft. Title: Re: Warmup for AM Rally on 15! Post by: Pete, WA2CWA on February 05, 2021, 12:01:32 PM Great QSO yesterday Don. Thanks

Mostly 15 meter band is earlier open to USA the Ten ;) Good DX, pe1mph Title: Re: Warmup for AM Rally on 15! Post by: N4DJ on February 07, 2021, 07:56:02 AM I was hearing stations in Florida. I frequently hear stations in Texas and Arizona on CW and SSB. I keep checking around 29 MHz for AM but its been a long time since I heard any. I find 15 is opening more now so I will be checking there more frequently. What frequency do you use for AM on 15 meters?
