West coast booming in here in South Central Missouri this AM.
Made at least 6 good contacts before it started to drizzle on my end. Most on 28 and 2 on 17.
Anyway, my fun ended but, I'll be keeping an eye, (Ear), on it.

LOL, who's the guy on 38LSB with the 11111111111111111111111111111's ? I heard him for about 2 hrs. this morning, what a waste of RF !
It's been interesting to watch our local SDR while I work. I guess I did not realize how many people talk in between channels. Today there was a lot of activity on 27.380 and 27.390.
Yeah I heard the same guy yesterday with the multiple 1 BS. Guess some just never grow up ! That storm in outer space must be over because seems like DX is picking up a again around here at least. Been setting up a self test station to try to listen to the quality of my own radio transmits. Gotta find a extention for my head phones If you can't get help from locals I guess you have to stand on your head get creative. LOL
Just made a couple of good contacts on 39LSB on the ride home. 70 Jamaica and #1 equalizer in Trinidad. Motor Mouth Maul was on 28 busting it up but again, I couldn't reach him.
The band is alive and doing really well making contacts today. East coast is strong here.
Hope to catch some of you fellas on there, I'll be around 365 or 385 somewhere.

Yes, don't forget the zeros. I hear people on .380 right now.
There are a lot of guys that move over , 27.390 gets a lot of use.
With a decent radio just moving up or down 5 kc can get you out of the bee hive.
On 23 channel radios with SSB old guys would move down below channel 16 on the rc slot to get away from dx.
When the band really gets hot you will find traffic everywhere.

Made lots of mid west stations and especially to a awesome sounding station in Nebraska. 223 were his numbers. He was running a AT5555 n2 and it was super clear, on frequency…..amazing sound!!

Heck yeah a super successful evening for me as well, best in quite a while. From Vancouver Island to Pennsylvania and everything in between. Shoot so many were lined up to answer I stopped logging them.
This 7900v gets a ton of compliments so it is now on my ssb radio throne. Mr Mike Scott did a wonderful job when he set it up. If you ain't got one, you really should.
It's gonna be a great sun cycle it already seems

Got the pleasure of being home early again today and the band is wide open. Hope some of you fellas get to enjoy some Dx time this evening. Maybe we'll cross up in the waves.
DX started early this morning and is still running, but too much to do to enjoy it. VA Doctor check up tomorrow then maybe can call DTB Radio and set up my run for next week. Hope this stuff last !
I made a few contacts today on a bone stock Realistic TRC-422A and a Sirio Performer 5000!
It's an old radio but, looks almost new. But, not much can be done to one to make it swing that modulation, from what I've read. I wish it could be tuned a bit. Modulation anyway.
