Another good night, worked a few new ones. Fairly good band conditions right up to about 0330 Z then just died! Very fast QSB though during my grey line...
worked Willy W1LY, Jack VE3RDQ, Kevin K4NAAG and Keith VE7GDH in BC again - all bitx to bitx 5watts. Heard VE3MLM but too close to work. Didn't get much radio time in tonight because of company but did make a few qso's.? Look forward to working some more during the week on 7.277MHz. 73 Tom |

Worked some new BITX guys tonight...You were my 2nd BITX-to-BITX contact, at about 4081 km. Tom VE3THR at about 3338 km (who was also my first a couple of weeks ago) was my 3rd. This is getting to be habit forming! I gave the two of you 2x2 and 3x3 reports. However, both of you came up better than that for at least one transmission each, but faded a bit at the end. Some of the time, I had QRM from a station just below us. PS - my BITX is still limping along at about 2W. I'll get it sorted out one of these days! -- 73 Keith VE7GDH |
