Hallo Hiro,
in the period from 29th Mar 2024 until 31th Mar 2024 i made 224 QSOs with stations from JA-Land, that is great.
A lot of station was very taff too read, because the signals was very very weak, partly 119 report only with a lot of callsign-reququests of my side.
But, that is no problem for my. Its for my a regular challenge, pick up the weakest signals. Loud signals read can everybody.
My QRV-plan was very simple:
After sunraise in DL i have used my antennas for 20 m and 15 m to direction JA.
Mostly am i startet on 20 m for a short period. After them i made QSY for a long period on 15 m, because on 15 m i can expecting more stations from JA-land.
In JA land you have a lot licenses until 50 W-limit on 15 m.!
After the signals on 15 m are going down, i have don QSY on 20 m.
The first JA signals on 40 m was here between 18:45 and 19:25 UTC until 20:45 and 21:30 UTC
On 20 m i have used a 3 El-Beam abt 20 m up fixed direction JA and 2 x 3 El. Beam abt 34 and 31 m up fixed direction USA
On 15 m i have used a 4 El-Beam abt 23 m up fixed direction JA and 2 x 4 El. Beam abt 37 and 34 m up fixed direction USA
Additional i can use a rotable 3 El.- Beam on 20 m 20 m up and 4 El.Beam on 15 m 20 m up.
On 40 m i have used a 2 El.-Beam abt 20 m up fixed direction JA.
I can on 40 m also use a 2 El- Beam abt 40 m up fixed direction USA.
For all other directions i have a rotable Beam 40 m 20 m up.
A little problem was for me 10 m.?
The rotable 10 m beam doesnt work, somthing defect.
But, i have tryed too use a simple dipol about 12 m up.

For each band i have used a separate powerful PA and Computer workplace (all computers ale in one network).
I can switch on and off each antenna separate and in combination.?
So is it possible pick up the weakest signals, when i switch off antennas from other directions with noise only.
Important for this game is, that the DX station rhythmic send the own call with short breaks for listening.
?
A good tool for radio forecast is that:
Thank you Hiro for your QSP of my activity in different JA-mailing lists. That was very helpful.
I can so write a lot of new JA-callsigns in my log.?
A lot of the callsigns was not in my support-database, that is great.
