Tony's 10 Metre Band Report
03 May 2007

Still not a great deal of activity with the exception of Saturday and Sunday.

SV1EEX, Nikiforos, heard a few stations, 5H3VMB, IA0IPY, HV0A, and IK0FNH. Thanks for the first report from a Greek station.

Steven, G7BXU, says he heard “9A2X 59 on back of beam”.
OK then why not turn the beam and use it the right way round? Joking apart, Steven why not tell us what kit you have there and what you can work (on 10m) with it.

All reports about Ten Metres are welcome here, short sharp and snappy or long and detailed.

Good to see some G stations getting into the lists, not forgetting MW0HMV in Llanelli who seems quite active on ten. Although I use the term Gs to refer to UK stations we have a wealth of different prefixes and regional variants, so hopefully no one should feel offended by its use.

ST100S is Sudanese National Centenary call sign for the Scouts centenary year-2007.

Contests: There are a few things on this weekend. A Portuguese Navy Contest Saturday 15:00 to Sunday 15:00, an Italian DX Contest, Saturday 20:00 to Sunday 20:00 and several USA states so called “QSO Party” contests.

Sun: Sun spot 953 is quite a decent one and has a pretty good chance of sending out M Class flares. Anyone who can get hold of the RSGB’s RadCom magazine for May should read the most interesting article entitled An Introduction to HF Propagation by G4FKH (p56 to p58). Gwyn has pulled together some very illuminating information about the sun. (Sorry, just couldn’t resist that pun)
