Easter DX Event 2009!
Delboy Enterprises have announced another DX Event for users of CB Radio and PMR-446. In the past these events have been very popular and many operators have turned out on the hill tops to make long distance contacts. You don’t need to go mobile to enjoy the events but it helps! The main thing is…
11m DX conditions February 08′
February was again as expected very quiet. Minimal solar activity and no other strong openings to speak of. The first week was very disheartening. On the 4th it was possible to make some contacts but with much QSB closing by the afternoon. The 8th brought some conditions with UK to 1,13,14,19,30,31,35 with the sound of…
11m DX conditions January 08′
Welcome to 2008 and the beginning of cycle 24. I hope all our members have had a good start to the new year, and make many contacts in the months to come. “”On January 4, 2008, a reversed-polarity sunspot appeared—and this signals the start of Solar Cycle 24,” says David Hathaway of the Marshall Space…
11m DX conditions October to December 07′
October we had fairly low expectations, what with the end of the summer sporadic and it being too early for the winter openings, all we could do was sit tight and see what came our way. The 1st and the 2nd showed virtually zero SSB activity only some short openings to 3 division getting through.…
11m DX conditions september 07′
For this month levels continued to drop through September. With 21 consecutive days recorded with no sunspots. Sporadic openings have been at the lowest levels in 2007 so far. The 1st to the 4th of the month raised some hopes with workable conditions including: 1,13,14,16,26,30,36,47,56,163,169 divisions. Much QSB but very nice to hear stations calling…
11m DX conditions August 07′
It would appear that the sporadic propagation again this month has become even more infrequent, many days passing with no skip at all. It surely shows that along with a poor summer in the UK and solar minimum that things can only improve. The start of month had spells of skip with 1,13,14,15,16,19,20,21,26,30,31,35,47,54,161,163 divisions as…
11m DX conditions July 07′
Conditions for this month were slightly less than I expected. That said when prop was there it was good. The 1st through to the 6th had very strong EU divisions with small spells of 2 division heard on USB,AM and LSB in the afternoons. Going through to the middle of month we had good inter…
11m DX conditions June 07′
The month of June provided an expected extension of May’s propagation. As per May we had continued use of 26mhz and both AM and LSB, many stations actually calling and QSY to LSB to try and find some clear air to hold a QSO. I personally had a couple of QSO’s whilst mobile in low…
11m DX conditions May 07′
A very difficult month to write a report for with far more stations and divisions than it is possible to list! Yes, sporadic E has returned. Notable activity on LSB in the evenings with the Caribbean, West Indies and the USA all received & a few worked by stations in the UK. Also a good…
