I started at 16.40 UTC I received a lot, but after 1 hour I received less stations and was less reported. Good conditions in the grey zone. Maximum distance was 2146 km with 50 milliwatt.
Door het verplaatsen van mijn werk naar Utrecht ben ik helaas nog minder met de hobby bezig. Komend weekend heb ik de CGR reünie en zal dan wat qso's maken.
Just wondered how you achieve your 50mW are you using a separate TX or an attenuator on the FT817. Just out of interest - the 50mW doing great ! I am thinking of dropping my power also.
Hello Peter, indeed I use a attenuator 10 db with the FT817 output on 0,5 watt. Maybe I will arrange a attenuator 20 db, so my output is 5 milliwatt. 73 Paul

Paul, dat is weer een prima resultaat. Zo kun je mooi zien dat de greyzone kansen bied. 73, Bas
