Hi Murray; Nice to hear from you. I am at work at the moment, but I will certainly
compile all the information you request later today and send it to you direct..
Yes, I am using version 1.20 .. 73 for now, and have a great day:

Andy,
Thanks for
the information about your WSQ activity. Fascinating! I
would
like to learn more details.
Since I'm not conversant
with where the stations you list are, could you
give me some indication of where they are
relative to you, and what
distances are
involved? I imagine time zones would be a big factor.
It's
our experience here that in order
to work VK on 630 metres means rather
late
nights!
Also, it's not
entirely clear what mode the operators were using. I see
some of your exchanges have partial call signs,
some have no checksums,
others use capital
letters, others repeat their call signs in the body
of the message. Perhaps this is simply
unfamiliarity with the WSQCall
mode. Could
you confirm that you are using WSQCall V1.20? If you are,
could you send me your Message Log and
Locator Log? And what exact dial
frequency
are you using?
I'm
really impressed with all the activity you have there. Here,
it's a
good night if I work one station
300 km away and maybe hear or work a VK
2000 km away. There are just so few stations
here on 630 metres.
73,
Murray ZL1BPU
