When you look at the week it’s kind of been 'ordinary', if such a word can be applied to any 28MHz time period.

Stats back down to needing three not five per day, very few Gs though that could have been World_Cup_itis, hot lazy weather (in Europe) and a weekend that was less than ordinary. (More than you can say about the England team performance, soccer wise of course).

All the following were heard by Graham, M1CDU, on PSK31 on 28.210Mhz on the previous Sunday with times in UTC to boot. So it looks like PSK if you want to work 10m. There were 207 different callsigns here! from a massive 360 heard. I had to remove duplicate countries to get down to a useable list. Of course hearing them is usually a lot easier then working them.

2E0BYX 15:23, 4L1BR 11:31, 5B4AHY 17:55, 9A1CCB 15:23, DB2MWA 15:08, EA1WS 18:23, EW1LN 11:28, F1DXM 16:09, G0BZB 11:18, HA0NGT/P 11:35, HB0YWR 15:13, HG1RM 11:09, I1CIB 18:25, IK1BHS 18:43, IN3NHZ 14:55, IV3KAS 16:14, IW2CXJ 17:08, IZ0MIO 19:01, LB1TE 11:42, LX1GG 15:20, LY1NM 15:51, LZ1OI 12:28, M6EZI 16:22, OE6HTG 11:14, OK1AK 16:24, OM2ABL 17:29, ON7KEI 16:18, PE3PB 11:46, R300FF 15:51, RA1AHL 11:05, S51ZZ 18:35, SM4BSI 10:42, SP100ZKX 15:39, SQ5NHJ 14:40, SV2CBS 16:31, SX2MT 14:46, UA0JL/6 14:44, YL3BF 15:28, YO3ZA 15:15.

Dave, VK5MRD, found time at last to get the rig on but with little success.
Heard: JA2IGY/b, JR0YAN/b, VR2B/b, RR9O/b, YB9BWN/b, ZL3TEN/b, ZL2MHF/b, VK2RSY/b, VK7RSC/b, VK8VF/b.

Stations worked were:- Nil. The band was open but I could not find any activity. However 11m (CB?) was wide open across Australia and New Zealand.

I forgot to mention that the VK5RSC 10m repeater is now back up and running again on 29.620MHz. The problem was on the TX side even though the repeater was receiving signals it had a very low out put for quite some time. Barry VK5KBJ and the gang from the South Coast Amateur Radio Club (www.scarc.org.au) have replaced the final driver transistor and the problem has been fixed and the repeater is now back up and running as normal.

Sun: Sunspot 1084 is isolated and on the weak side as sunspots go.

So England are out and must rebuild with new young talent as the current lot were poor to say the least!

I spent 3 weeks in Hong Kong where it was 28 to 32 ºC, 97% humidity when it wasn’t raining which was only 7 days out of the 21. And boy did it rain! What with that and the mosquitoes HK is not exactly paradise. Except that’s where the grandkids are, so it’s great anyway and we enjoyed it.
