11 meter is very quiet?

Back to the topic, after pulling a 20 work shift due to a refinery emergency, I'm home today and conditions are fantastic. Worked many stations thos morning with the 2950 so hopefully condition will hang through the day.

Just maybe I can catch another fellow wwdx member on the air.
Happy DX everyone!

Yes Sir, the 2950dx6 is a great radio.

I sure hope conditions hold out tonight. I won't be on until around 8:00pm. Sounds like you've been bagging 'em up my friend!
I've been making lots of contacts over the past three evenings. It's been hopping!!! A very good sign...

 

[Brother DXer]

Running through the frequencies this morning and conditions are good. Lots of talking going on from 355 to 435. Of course 385 is booming and fortunately no distractions yet with music or 111111. Europe is up above 40 as of right now. I just heard a loud QSO on 27.865. USA.

What are some active freqs for Europe? I've never ventured from band 4 on my 955 other than playing with the VFO once and making a contact.

Yep. If you listen there when dx is rolling you may hear operators on there giving you a frequency to qsy to for contact.

I need a radio that can do that.

It’s real tempting man!!!

That's why I bought the Lincoln II+ so when the Cobra gives it up I'd have a spare, but have to get it tweeked to perfection. In the mean time I think I'll have my Galaxy DX 2547 worked over to do it all. I did go into 27.555 USB on the Cobra 2000 and Bingo there was a Englishman Chap strutting his stuff but only heard his side of the convo.

Go for it man, You only live once. LOL

We’ll see. My financial planner might think otherwise. LOL The Lincoln seems so be not mobile friendly. I do like the QT60/Q5N2!!

I like the display on the G5N2 better but that's all I know about it. Check out the differences between them. And I might have just had more bad luck with the Lincoln but it is frustrating. Those Anytones have the weather on them if that is important to you. I would have jumped on the Q5N2 if I didn't have so much invested in radios already

The q5n2 can't be beat these days!

And it's already been done up by Scott's to make it even better!

I shut down a early today. Kept hearing the musical calls across upper and lower freqs like it was transmitting from Grand Rapids.
