Hi All!

I can hear the pactor station here with a strengh until S8!
The P3(?) signal spreads from 10147.00 +300Hz until +1300Hz!!
My rig here on the campingsite is my FT-897D with 30W, 10m vertical wire matched via a 1:9 unun (MTFT) and a MFJ-945e ATU. I have made PSK31 qso's across europe (Algeria - Norway, Spain - Ukraine) without any problems. But to make a communication contact with one of the 2 pskmail-servers PI4TUE or SM0RWO is not really possible. Sometimes I get the APRS-pos through and I get a 'QSL' back. You can find my actual position on 'findu.com'.

@Per: The other qrg's (from the pskmail homepage) don't work from here.
Tahnks for your support!!

As a result of this scenario, I will think about to install a dedicated pskmail-server at home. But: I have now equipment at the time and will not block my self ....

Hi all,

Had a busy evening here. Wolf/OE7FTJ is on vacation in Italy and
connected on 30 meters. The connect started fine, just the usual initial
collision, and when it was time for traffic the pactor stations started
jamming. They went on for a while and then the link recovered and
traffic was about to start...enter pactor agn.
This scenario was repeated until the band closed.

In order to better support Wolf I have changed to a vertical antenna
(its tilted 45 degrees however) and started scanning again. It was very
dark out here when I ran around laying out the radials so any reception
reports would be interesting.
