I switched on the radio yesterday and intend to make some QSOs on JT65-HF 20m with my FT-817. But busy family live did bring me elsewhere and I forgot I switched it on. Sundaymorning I discovered I spotted a lot of DX and at least I received fellow blogger KL8DX yesterday afternoon. So between family live I tried to make DX at sunday. Through the day I made some QSOs, best DX was DU1GM with my 5W on the loop antenna. Later I discovered I was heard from New Zealand till California USA. Not bad for QRP !
Gisterenmiddag had ik de radio aangezet met de bedoeling nog wat DX te gaan doen op JT65-HF 20m met de FT-817. Maar gezins bezigheden lieten mij het niet toe, en ik was alweer vergeten dat ik de radio aangezet had. Zondagmorgen was de radio dus nog aan en zag ik een hoop DX voorbij komen, dit keer heb ik mede blogger KL8DX (Alaska) tenminste ontvangen. Tussen alle drukte door toch nog wat QSO's gemaakt, beste DX DU1GM (Philippijnen) met 5W op de loop antenne. Later kwam ik erachter dat ik ontvangen was van Nieuw Zeeland tot Californië USA. Niet gek voor QRP !
Bas, I'm sure addicted to this mode! I am having a blast with it, especially on the low bands were my antenna's are substandard. I normally keep mine up on 20 meters all night on the weekends. Great to see ya caught me. Have a good week my friend and good DX'n! 73!
