Hi Read the impressions: https://www.3830scores.com/showrumor.php?arg=2DalzKyaiymc0 " Not a single NA signal moved my S-meter. It felt like working EME on 144 MHz in old days. We moved our BEVs on a slightly different location(TNX S57AL, S53CC, S53BB and S55OO) but it was much noisier as

I am starting to feel "shell- shocked".   I had two storms come through here in rapid succession. Storm #1 produced incredibly heavy wet snow. It caused many trees to suffer with large broken limbs. The snow depth was 13.5 inches. It really stuck to the trees. All of my eight beverage antennas

Sorry to see that so many of you in North America are suffering with horrendous winter weather at the moment. For those of you who can sill get on 160m, hope to see some of you on the band this week. 73 Roger G3YRO _ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband -

As promised, a reminder . . . A good chance to check things out before the Stew Perry Contest at the weekend. To clarify - this is Wednesday night / Thursday morning. (I personally won't be on till around 02.30Z, as I have a late gig in town!) 73 Roger G3YRO _ Searchable

Well as others have mentioned, DX conditions have been quite good the last few nights . . . But not many NA stations on the band to work ! So that's why I'm still pushing this idea of an Activity Night on Wednesday evenings, to try at least get everyone on one night a week ! I personally try
