C31CT on 30M and a small JA run


Posted: December 23rd, 2008 under DX, Hamradio, Homepage, LoTW, Soundclips.

A small report this time since I haven’t been on the radio for several days. On Sunday, I had a go on 30M. I called CQ and was spotted by ZL2IFB, thanks Gary. Band was open for some DX, and I got 15 JA’s in the log and one HL with HL3IB. I worked the […]

** NEW! ** The Triple Play WAS


Posted: December 19th, 2008 under Diploma, Hamradio, LoTW.

AP2TN on 40M and A71CW on 30M


Posted: December 15th, 2008 under DX, Hamradio, Soundclips.

#300 on CW with T88CJ on 30M


Posted: December 6th, 2008 under DX, Hamradio, LoTW.

Finally I reached 300 DXCC's on CW alone. The last country was worked on Monday with T88CJ on 30M (#235). I have been listening for them several times but signal has just been too weak. OH3SR/VP9 was also worked on 30M. On Tuesday I worked V31WA, PJ2/K8ND, PZ5RA  and FJ/WJ2O. All with good signals on […]
