Title: 10 Meter AM Open From W2 To G0 20:30 UTC! Post by: W2VW on March 05, 2014, 03:46:29 PM Just finished up with G0LQZ who was running a barefoot Icom and 1/2 wave vertical.
Started at 20:07 UTC. 23 minutes of across the pond AM! Before that was GM0IQI at 19:53 UTC The band had faded out earlier but came back like the bad guy in the end of a horror movie. Saw 6 or 7 blips on the fish finder in the AM area while this was going on. Title: Re: 10 Meter AM Open From W2 To G0 20:30 UTC!

Where are all you retired guys? ...zzzzzzzz... Huh? What? 3 PM is naptime here! I already played this morning: GW4GNY G4DPH F6DMD M3TNL DL5XU G8NOF Heard Chuck K1KW @ S-7+ on backscatter Heard Rick VE6CQ creating a non-stop pileup of stations across Europe. Heard Aldo IW5EKR quite loudly at one point The band was a bit unstable when I was messing around between 11AM ~ 12:30PM (EST) with signal strength moving fast from S9+ to the threshold of audibility in just a few seconds. Fun to play around though as lots of stations were in there. So... back to my nap... Rob W1AEX Title: Re: 10 Meter AM Open From W2 To G0 20:30 UTC! Post by: W2VW on March 07, 2014, 05:25:11 PM Quite right. 11 to 12:30 local the band fades to Yerp and fakes out a lot of folks. AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
