I was catching up on gates. Man you guys always have more conditions it seems. (Down south where those sun spots hit harder).

Since sky wave is broken down, guess it's time to move on down to 75m for a while. LOL. I'm working my way there!


Anyway, hi guys what's new :)

I'm working on my Tech Class, so it'll be a while before I'm transmitting on 75m with a General Class. I can listen though 8) and one-way gate operators.

Conditions here the last few days have been terrible at best and a lot of static with no one but once in a while on channel 6 which is usually very busy, my 959 is going thru withdrawals, lol

I did here Jamaica come thru a couple of times yesterday on 38lsb for a second or two but then he was gone.

Shoot, the last few days I have talked to 501 Australia, 212 Jamaica, 135 Jamaica tonight. 573 Ohio. Sideband was the ONLY thing rolling in 11m tonight. I had/have a storm moving in acting like a reflector. I got one copy tonight from Australia then conditions faded.

My 959 is experiencing the same feels of loneliness as yours. LOL. High five on the 959 bro, can't go wrong with cheap and reliable.
