More Tropo Coming!

Well, just when you thought the Christmas and New Year 'tropo of the decade' event had been cleared away, it seems we're in for another, albeit briefer, period of possible excitement at 144MHz.

The new 8-ele, aimed at the 144MHz beacon in the US.

The Hepburn charts are forecasting another plume of ducting from Ireland and Britain into the tropical and equatorial Atlantic for the coming weekend.

It looks as though the intensity of that ducting might be even stronger than a couple of weeks ago.

Here we go again!

So, maybe the new 2m Yagi will see some renewed action into Cape Verde.  Even better would be into Brazil - by no means impossible, given the all-sea path.
