LISTEN FOR ME ON 27.385 !!

[unit_399]

After we moved to Colombia 12 years ago, I set up my station and proceeded to dx all around the world. I connected with many members of this forum: Robb, Audio Shockwave, DxMan, Marconi (grandpa), and many others. I lost all of my antennas to a violent storm 6 years ago, and have been off the air since then. With the beginning of the new solar cycle, I am getting ready to begin Dxing again. I have built a new 4 element quad, and a 5/8 wave horizontal dipole, and have them up and ready to transmit. I am upgrading my equipment ( TRC457, TX600 linear, etc,) and hope to be on the air in a week or so.

I am looking forward to contacting as many of the forum members as are out there. My contact frequency is 27.385. Give me a shout, or reply to my CQ-DX and I will do my best to get back to you . 73s

You moved to Colombia from the U.S.?

What are the CB rules like over there? Have they adopted the U.S. band plan or are there other frequencies allocated? Any limits on output power?

What kind of skip do you pick up down there?

Very curious.

'be a pleasure Jim, It's been a long time. You're one of the few that could get me to resurrect the beast and turn the house your direction .

 

[Shadetree Mechanic]

Make sure to point it at Delaware sometimes. Eight Zero Eight Standing By!

 

[AudioShockwav]

I look forward to hearing you in my receiver again my friend.
I will be calling you when the band is open.

I talked to you a long time ago. Used to hear you all the time.

 

[Low_Boy]

399, Glad to hear you will be back. We talked on 38 LSB years ago and I will be listening for you. Hope we can connect again. You were always one of the more classier operators on the air. A real gentleman.

I heard a little American skip on 38 today here in Mexico... Victoria Australia that is. Could be warming up for something, have noted some unusual conditions lately.

Just curious, what kind of matching network do you use on your quad?

The reference to Mexico is pretty common here in Australia. Let's hope some moron doesn't suggest to build a wall huh?

I wonder if that was you I heard today (about an hour ago) from Colombia. Pretty cool if it was.
