First QSO in 2012 was HK0NA on 12M CW January 26st. That was a new one on CW for me followed by 4W0VB on 30M CW. Yet another new one on CW. They don't come by too often these days with 323 on CW. Two days later on January 28th, I worked VP6T on 40M CW for a new one on 40M. I also managed to work HK0NA on 40M/30M/20M/17M/15M CW, 10M SSB and 40M RTTY. PS5F was worked on 10M CW from SA-088 on Saturday, February 4th. That was a new IOTA for me.

I don't think I'll bother this year. I don't record, or for that matter, work as much radio as I used to. Hope those of you that has been listening my soundclips has enjoyed them. Only one soundclip recorded in December, and that has been my only contact during that month. As always, enjoy.

The one from LZ2STO is quite interesting. In that opening, I worked 4 x YU stations on aurora. It was not aurora all the way, it was an ES to aurora link active at that time.

The second one made by G3TCT, was from one of the best aurora openings I've experienced on 6M.

Listen to both of them below.

No HF has been worked in a while, and not too many contacts since the big aurora in early August. I have however managed to work several new gridsquares on 6M. If you look at the map, you see the new ones I've worked. Thank you very much to all the people that activated these squares!

  • OH9KL was worked July 31st in KP26 on JT6M.
  • OH5LID was worked August 4th in KP45 on JT6M.
  • OH5LID was worked August 5th in KP47 on JT6M.

I did get another proof on August 11th that the 6M season still wasn't over. I noticed TY1KS being spotted further down in Europe. I turned the yagi and to my surprise, I could hear him. I could however not make myself heard. I think I copied him for around 15 minutes before he faded. Listen to the soundclip below.
