GM all



Did lots of calling on my band of interest @ 1824kHz but did not work or
even hear any MRD action. Hope you all had lots of fun. Maybe next year
TopBand will produce…???



Any plans to activate 630m from 2018 now that it is on your breakfast menu
& is the closest band to our old staple diet of Five Ton?? It will work for
at least Stateside, Canada & western Europe across the briny for
sure…somewhat tougher to-from VK/ZL.

Hawaii might be getable from the east coast VK stations.



Best 73 de Doc/VK5BUG (ex-VHM Darwin, VHK Canberra, VKCK/Stuart,
VLMG/Anzac, VKMP/Ibis, VKLP/Melbourne, VMFZ/Attack plus sundry icebreaker
“short terms” North & South)
