80m Today

After modify and adjusting the antenna for 80m, It was great for me. Making about 300 QSO, mostly JA,NA and EU. I research the QSO,s on 80m of last year, it's coincidence around 26 Feb 2016 used many QSO on 80m. this evening 'll be again on 80m. Please call me SPLIT, but recommend Not just 1.0KHz.

80m today

Today we didn't have QRN on 80m, so it was comfortable to operate. Luckily I made several QSO,s with EU.
but we had a problem, while I was calling F4 station, DF station didn't stop call me. Why? I lost one QSO with F4 station.

80m QRV

This morning I had little QRN so could make QSO,s EU,s.
but a HA8 and YB2 station were only repeat calling and noting listen me. I don't understand why call me? Please not call if you can not listen well with QRM. It is better to wait or listen more carefully. Your signal was always 559.........

QRV on 80m

Today I was on 80m for EU, it was good condition and thanks for calling me, but several stations were continuity calling and not stop call until reply them, but they didn't reply if I response to them. only continuity calling. It is better I'll QRV only in the contest.

ARRL CW Contest

Last weekend I was on ARRL CW Contest, I could enjoy the contest with 1100 QSO,s from 80m to 10m, using 18m long wire vertical into ICOM AH-2 for all bands and 2ele HB9CV for 15m band and IC-7300 100W.
I had good feeling the 18m vertical for 80m band. This week I'll adjust correct it to 80m without AH-2 to use amplifier.

I don't have idea when I'll change the antenna for 160m, but it is possible after 80m QRV.

WPX RTTY

Last weekend I was on WPX RTTY Low power All bands.
I could clear the top score of last year which I made it.
Most of 500 QSOs are JA,s and W,s.
It was difficult to get EU in this season or my poor system.

I'm not sure but QRV except 160m and 80m depending on the weather.
because still we are cyclone season. Rain and gale........
