pedition, conds have been bad and realy this op's on
TX3X have been very VERY BAD........
Have heard FK8DD and FK8CE on many band
With good signal,but NO show up of TX3X.....
They dident understand which band to be on,
they missed the greyline to EU every morning...
It's not often we have a major dx-pedition's on
the air with so low skilled ops.......
If this is the style of West-coast dx-ers ....
I realy understand their begging on dx-cluster...

Have try to make contact with TX3X this weekend

but no sucsess,looks like this dx-peditions are some

first time dx'ers. They havent a clue about propagation.

They miss the greyline opening to Europe every morning.

Always to late on 30 40 mtr,wrong band mostley of the time.

They havent make so many qso's to North America either.

Their bad operating tecnich make a lot of frustration.

Hopefuly I can snag them on a band before they go home.

But this will be a hard one.............

xxxxxxxxx
Have been very activ in the last week, but radio conds have
been very bad for the last months, my first 3 qs with E6GG
was with very low signal,but exelent ops from their side
made it possible. Since I run low Power it's a lot harder to come thru.
But mostly this kids with cw on theirs F1.. F2  knobs dont have a
s9 signal in theirs reciver...,many of them dont take part.
So many times it's easier to work dx-pedition with low signal
than those who deliver a s9 signal......
cw-MODE is KING... ssb it's the ROOKIES MODE...

WOWW conds this weekend was not bad, well 10 mtr was very spotty and only
26 qso's was made. But some nice ones like Z21MG and 5H3MB on 10 mtr make me
smile. 15 and 20 mtr's was in great shape good openings to North America and to
Japan. On 40 mtr it's allways a lot of station's to work...ton's of eu's great.
On 80 mtr I put up an inv-l ,just finished the work 3 hours before the test
startet up. It worked ok but only some few dx worked on that band.
Had not planned to stay so long in front off the radio this weekend but ended
up with 36 hour. In between the ryryry i was hunting for E6GG and T2GC .
Had some good run's and some bad.So mostly S&P. All my station worked well.
This small antennas i have from Optibeam realy deliver the rf....Very happy
with this antennas....RUN and BUY...You will smile also.. cu in SAC SSB .Lars
