Tune your radio for 80m WSPR from HAARP

http://www.arrl.org/news/haarp-campaign-to-use-wspr-on-80-meters

It will be interesting to receive the signal from the HAARP site in Alaska if you can!

Update 01-08-2018: Of course the HAARP antennas are bouncing the enormous signal straight up. DX cannot be expected especially not at this time of the year. I've been listening on 80m WSPR (because you never know) but hardly saw any from across the atlantic. So I was searching who did receive the HAARP test transmission. Only a few from Alaska did. I think, because of disappointment, they eventually moved to 40m which gave some more "DX" to the states. You can see the 80m reports as ornage lines and the 40m reports as yellow lines on the map. Wel, I hope they proved something with this experiment?

Some DX on 6m

I don't really want to transform this blog into a 6m DX blog. I realize it is not interesting for all my readers. However I finally have a great 6m DX antenna I can use and it gives me DX....at least sometimes.

Unexpected and quite early in the afternoon I see a CQ from HI3T (Dominican republic) and I just answered not expecting he would come back to me. But he did and that was DXCC nr. 59 on 6m. After the QSO I made it to Puerto Rico again.


I can't be on the radio all the time. But from what I see on PSK reporter it was a good day for north
america.
