New Country In the Log


Last night whilst tuning around 40M I managed to work some good DX into Senegal, West Africa which is a new Country for me. I was running 50W from the FT-767GX with a G5RV type Dipole when I heard a pile up around 7.092mhz, the voices stoped calling and I was able to hear the DX station 6W2SC.

6W2SC(Peter) was coming through up to Baildon Moor N.Yorks quite well with a 5/8 signal report received at my station. I worked Peter with a little patience form his good self, which he had as other stations were insistent on calling over me. h.i I still managed to make the qso despite the heavy QRM back to him sending a 5/5 2E0HTS signal.
Its a nice bonus working a new one and lets hope propagation is improving at last!
Thanks from myself to Peter 6W2SC for making it possible to add a next DXCC in the old log as well as the speedy eQSL confirmation ;-)

Awsome picture of the Azi Ele M1PAC Satellite blaster! Sounds like you got your work cut out for you in the joinery sense, I am sure it will be well the effort once you have your shack the way you want it.

Catch you on the bands,
