[600MRG] FT8call BCN on 160m tonight from CN85

[Neil Klagge]

w0yse is running a FT8call beacon every 5 minutes on 160m (already running).


I am using a dial of 1838.0 kHz (default QRG) and a 1500 offset. Will probably run it all night.


What is different this time is that I am using my 45 ft TL vertical, so I might get better results compared to the OCFD I was using last time at 22 ft AGL.

My output from the FT891 is saying 30 watts, but my SWR/pwr meter is saying it is 15w, so I will claim the latter 😉


Tnx for any feedback...
