    8m experiment (Friday)

    Posted: 03 Jun 2022 12:32 AM PDT http://g3xbm-qrp.blogspot.com/2022/06/8m-experiment-friday.html


    Yesterday was my best day yet on 8m with several Es spots. So far this
    year, the Es season has been poor here. All being well I shall be on 40.680
    MHz USB dial FT8 TX later. I usually TX in the first period.
