I thought it was sporadic E at first, it was difficult to maintain a contact with so many calling in.. this is just one of four videos on the contact and if I'd have edited them all together it would have been around 45 minutes long.. who's got time for that 😂😂
Hi Eric, The past few days it's been flat but towards mid afternoon and evening Europe has been coming in strong but very fast QSB and signals fading quickly.. mother nature is still around but she is choosing her times at odd hours.
Yes my friend you have spoken to all of them I think.. it's a shame the mic keyers and jammers showed up, there are some real sad folks out there. Anyway you haven't got time to sit here on social media pal go take a leak up that electric fence when you get a minute and see if it's working 😂😂
@@DeltaXray444 You come on over cousin and visit and I will let you check it that way. Right now I am frying bacon on the wires. LOL Twitt LOL 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@DeltaXray444 No it's not up in the air yet, i got side tracked with other things i needed to get done at the homestead that couldn't wait. I will get it up soon hopefully!
Hey Glenn I recognise them voicesTom in 34 division plus Steve in Leicester and Nick in Coventry mobile. Tom always seems to boom in even when there is hardly any skip
Hi Cynthia.. I would say from a distance perspective from the UK it would have to be New Zealand that's around 18,400km about 11,500 miles and I've made the bounce to New Zealand many times and made contact also with Australia, so I would imagine if that is possible then I can get to just about any country.. On 11 meters it is much more difficult to get around the other side of the world and I think I've contacted most countries.. the most difficult ones for me which are far off but closer than Australia and New Zealand are China and Japan, I have done Japan twice but the contacts were very choppy.. it also depends on how propagation works and if mother nature lends a helping hand.
Tom in Cnary booms into Tenby , was getting abit crazy
