No no dont worry. That is my problem. I appreciate the effort you went to ,to copy me. I have several other Am rigs but one that is the best is only 8 watts but on a vfo. Am currenly working on a bigger one which is also VFO. The Dx60B is my back up deal. Just so I keep my hand in the game.

7290  & 7295

If I am downstairs in my homebrew ham shack I monitor 7290. If I hear activity I call on my Homebrew rig. If unsuccessful I often come upstairs to my DX60B station but it is crystal controled. I have 7120  and 7290 in it for 40M AM.
BTW Henk , I am coming to your fair land June 6 for 12 days. Any hamfests I should attend?

There was an AM QSO going on 7290 last night (Saturday), around 9 PM EST, with great signals and no broadcast stations. Over the past week heard several different AM QSO's after 8 PM around 7290/7295.

got to hook up with tim on 7.290 and brad-ws4b  so that was cool. i think we will try a little earlier tomorrow so if anyone else wants to join in, see if you can make it.

good signals. i liked the first mic better tim but the other one was better for the conditions.

I just signed. We went to 7285. W0vmc on now with k0ara. 40 is pumping tonight.

[VE3LYX]

Time to build my VFO I see. I am tied to a rock here. DX60B but I am quite happy to slip in when I can. I was down in the lower ham shack later and tried a couple of times on the QRP homebrew. Had good copy there but not enuf stomp to get out. I use a bent vertical down there and an multiband inverted Vee Up here in the main shack.

Don, try 7120 if you can...
After June 6 NO hamfests in Holland.
Then most have 'holydays'!
Good trip to Holland and have fun...

Hello Don,

If you can, try between: +/- 06.20 - 06.30 hours mornings by me.
(+/- 04.20 - 04.30 Londen GMT time)
Because at 04.30 (GMT) a BC starting on 7220 khz.

Mostly early mornings I listen to 80 & 40 to receive AM.

This morning I heard a strong BC on 7185, max. S6!
Sounding Arabic or Chinese......
