#244 on LoTW with VK9XX on 30M RTTY


Posted: January 11th, 2010 under DX, EME, Hamradio, LoTW.

What a pleasant surprise when I logged on to LoTW today. VK9XX had uploaded the log and gave me another country on LoTW (#244). I'm closing in on 250 now. The postage rates increased in Norway from January 1st 2010, as if the rates weren't high enough. That makes me even happier that more and [...]

LX1DB and HB9MOON on 23CM EME


Posted: December 19th, 2009 under EME, Hamradio.

GJTracker by W7GJ


Posted: July 31st, 2009 under DX, EME, Hamradio, Software.

After getting my new 6M yagi up in the air, I have wanted to try it on eme to see how it performs. To see the times that are best to the different stations, I found GJTRACKER to be an excellent program. The program is written by Lance W7GJ and was originally a dos version. [...]
