Suddenly I saw a VK4 station appear on my JT65 screen. Still I work QRP 5 watt with JT65. When I gave CQ VK7XX John from Tasmania came back for me. His report was -5 db, he gave me -18 db.
Theoretical he could hear me with 500 milliwatt as well. With JT65 it is possible to hear stations with -28 db. That's why I like JT65 because you can work DX with very low power.
With WSPR I was running 500 milliwatt on 10 meter. Best distance was FR1GZ with 9525 km.
Update about my XYL: The operation was successful, the edges of the wound were clean. The plastic surgeon made a reconstruction of her right breast. The oncologist suggest that she needs a chemotherapy for a half year. A TAC cure, docetaxel, Doxorubicine and cyclophosphamide. That will be very heavy. But together we are strong and we will fight against this cancer.
Have a nice weekend!
Hallo Paul,
ReplyDeleteRedelijk goed nieuws over je xyl. Hopelijk doet de chemo de rest verdwijnen.

Hallo Tjeerd, dat hopen wij ook. 73 Paul
ReplyDeleteIt won't be easy I know. Good luck to you both.

ReplyDeleteHallo Paul,
ReplyDeleteMooie JT65 verbinding man, proficiat.
Ik heb nu eindelijk JT65HF ook aan het draaien via HRD - DM780. Anders had ik geen CAT-sturing tussen de FT-817 en PC. Nu nog (net zulke mooie) verbindingen maken hi.
Ik wens jullie, maar vooral je XYL heel, heel veel sterkte toe met de komende chemo.
Het zal moeilijk worden, maar samen sta je sterk.
