TX4T new on 40M and high bands opening up


Posted: February 14th, 2010 under DX, Hamradio, Soundclips.

I worked TX4T Wednesday morning on 40M CW. The signal was not bad at all, but he was working USA/JA/VK/EU at the same time. After a little while in the pile-up, I managed to get through and it was a new one on 40M (#248). That was my first qso in a month. Radio activity […]

#244 on LoTW with VK9XX on 30M RTTY


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