10m AM

[KK4XO]

The recent increase in solar activity has really caused a corresponding increase in activity on 10m!  Today was exceptional with OH1TX, K1KW, W0FD, AA8DK and WA1HLR among many others heard here in south Florida.  I hope to join in the fun soon with a Valiant II transmitter soon-to-be on-the-air in another few weeks.

Make it much sooner then later. This good stuff won't last. By December, it gets quiet in the AM section.

Finally worked my first AM Japan station tonight.

Congratulations Pete.

Yes things may quit right at the new year. May last a little longer though.

I worked JR2IUB last night (Friday evening) around 2240Z.

Very weak sigs and heavy QSB on both ends.  I gave Tak a 3x3 and he gave me a 4x4.   We basically exchanged info and that was it.  No time to chat; I think we worked just before propagation died between us.  He was in contact with someone else stateside before I worked him but I couldn't hear the other person (and I hope I didn't step on him when I called the JA).

I was using my B&W and Hallicrafters gear and Tak was running 50W from a TS480HX;  both of us were using 3 elements yagis.

So, got my first JA on AM in the log, but I'm looking forward to another when we can actually chat a bit.

Much of the activity has shifted up 100 kcs today due to the monkeys.

UK working Western US on 29100 now.

I heard him last night around the same time but he was riding right at my noise level and then faded away. He was the same station I worked on Thursday. For our modest stations, it was a good catch.

The contest has SSB stations filling the band from 28400 to 29500...Lots of Europe this morning and 2 stations out of Svalbard....

[Pete, WA2CWA]

i worked several contest stations this morning around 29.0 on AM. One station told me I had way toooo much carrier. Another station told me I had too many sidebands.    It's fun to operate in a DX contest on AM.
