Hi, Keith here in Amherst, NY
I took the HTX-100 with me this AM and sfter my appointment I parked on
the shores of Lake Erie in Hamburg, NY
Here's what I logged between 1400Z and 1500Z on 27 April:
28.1750 VE3TEN - E-Skip Backscatter
28.1930 VE4ARM
28.2100 VE4TEN
28.2255 W2DLL - Ground Wave
28.2258 WB0LYV - I thought this one was moving to 28.223?
28.2330 N2UHC
28.2348 KI4AED
28.2500 N4AR - Not sure on the call, REALLY Weak
28.2540 KJ4QOB
28.2622 WF4HAM
28.2654 KR4HO
28.2690 W3HH - Still lower than I remember, used to be 269.5?
28.2828 W0ERE
28.2885 WJ5O - Easy Copy without the Birdies!
28.2998 KF4MS
WB0LYV was strong enough to take out W2DLL and I was less than 5 miles
from Dana's QTH. If the WB0LYV beacon is QSY'ing, I hope it's soon.
The HTX-100 has a minimum step of 100 hz, when I first turn it on the
time base drift moves it about 200 hz so take my frequencies with a
grain of salt, or maybe hot wings and blue cheese! I would love to
leave the TS-680S in the truck, but I can't afford to have it stolen.
The Rat Shack rig only has $40 into it, not so worried, y'know...
I will be out monitoring this afternoon after 2000Z, it will be
interesting to see which way the E-clouds drifted.
