11 meter is very quiet?

[Eldorado828]

Theres now about 3-4 people playing recordings all day of the 1111111111111111111111 guy.I've listened to various SDR receivers and found multiple sources playing that crap.

Wow, must be a number 1 epidemic.... It's odd that some get off to that... Hopefully none of the locals here catch that psychological disease.

Back to the topic now, rx had been pretty good throughout the day but seems I'm having a hard time getting my signal out there. Swr looks fine through the tuners meter but might have to inspect the antenna. Had a storm that came in hard Wednesday night into Thursday and the winds were pretty brutal, hopefully everything is fine up there.

This morning once again Europe was booming in. Worked a ton of stations before had to quit for company coming in. Been as good for as long a stretch as I can remember here.

 

[Eldorado828]

The band is wide open, working the east coast no problem. I'll be on occasionally so maybe can catch some of you gents today.

I just lost conditions here in SoCal. It peaks and drops so I will try again in a few.

Not long after lunch it closed up and that was it. Oh well, we've got a whole solar cycle getting started so let's take it as it comes.

Last night I had the pleasure of talking with 1212 in Hawaii which was pretty cool. Looking forward to some more of that type of qso as time moves on.

Was still open after lunch and made a few more contacts but the Rams game started so radio time was over.

Hope yours was good too!

I'm on the air today too, I'll be over on the top side between. 355 and .395. The 1.1.1. Guy or one of his copy cats is blowing up 38 right now.

Heck of a good day talking everywhere from Pasadena Cal to Rochester NY, from Vancouver to Monterrey Mex. and everywhere in between. I'm pretty stoked as wasn't expecting much.

Conditions kind of petered out but hopefully it'll open back up before the day runs out.

That's good stuff right there, that's what its all about. Good to see forum members making contact. Hopefully it will become a regular thing as conditions improve.
