HJ01

A lot of ships out there - and a small number of ham operators.  Image:Libreshot.com

I had a brief listen to 15m this morning.  The band was very alive!

I called a few FT8 'CQ's, whereupon I was picked up by F5MYK/MM, on board a merchant vessel.  He was reporting Maindehead grid HJ01 - a grid that is probably quite rare to put in the log, although it is on a major shipping route off the coast of Brazil.

There's always a nice surprise waiting with amateur radio!
