Re: August 2009 11 metre DX
Well done
Some south EU here, as usual 30, 31, 1 and 14 div all 5/9 atm. Listening out for 251 div who will be active around lunchtime I'm told, dont know what frequency but he has been using 520, 580 and 600.
FB net later this afternoon, usually 585 but may have to qsy plus or minus a bit because 585 is a big 30 div frequency
Also a good chance we'll have 90+ overs at Edgbaston and England need to bat all day and bowl the Aussies out tomorrow between rain showers

Re: August 2009 11 metre DX
161 and 1 div here atm calling, not very high best maybe 5/4-5 with lots of QSB. no prop from south again this morning unusually
Will only be on the radio for a short spell today as I'm off on the boat in the morning and have to load it up today with provisions
Then over the next week or so I'll be calling from the boat, probably early evening, late afternoon, travelling to just north of Stafford

Re: August 2009 11 metre DX
Rigged up a wire dipole accross the roof of the boat using the boat pole as a mast, inverted V looks crazy but works a treat, at least it appears to, not yet actually made contact with anyone yet
Some 30 div 5/3, but just the odd station and low voices atm, made some calls, but no joy yet, wire is cut for 45m, but I have a Avanti Big Stick for a vertical as well
Shame I forgot my lead to connect the camera to the laptop else I'd put a picture up now, will have to wait until I get home.
BTW using mobile internet, and its painfully slow from here only GPRS
