24MHz open nicely again

The 12m band continues to give generously this week, with daily openings to VK from Europe. The band opens before 08UT here in Wales.

I was happy to make another VK QSO using ~40W this morning with VK3ZH along the short path - although my beam was a good 25 degrees off the direct heading.  Brendan is using a 3-ele SteppIR beam, which is really doing a good job for him at 120W, as he was hitting my 3-ele LFA at +13dB at times.  Some minutes later, he was down at -18dB.  Some minutes later, the band went dead.


Another opening to VK this morning.  Terminator correct at time of QSO with VK3MH
