[EIDXA] BS7H Propagation

[reheinri at rockwellcollins.com]

I worked 9M2/PG5M in Spratly (short path beaming about 340 degrees) on
Sunday morning at about 7am on 20CW.  He was a good S5 here (well above the
noise for me).  There was quite a bit of QSB.

So I hope that holds true!!!  I want to make sure my station works for Jim
to get BS7H with no signal strength from Butternut verticals and IC-7000s!
So if Spratly is close, I should be good to go!!

Also worked the 5W on several bands but not 160 or 10 which is where I
really wanted to work them :(

Nelson,

Good observation.  Have you heard the Spratley group?  That would be fairly

close prop.  This one really seems difficult for a lot of the country.
Good
luck to all.

Jim

I worked BX5AA on 20 meter RTTY at 1331 UTC this morning beaming short
path.
According to HamCAP, 20 meters shouldn't open short path until 1530 UTC.
While Taiwan is a long way from Scarborough Reef, it's encouraging to see
that polar paths are open when they aren't predicted. I ran a prediction
for
BS7H using today's solar indices and while the short path openings don't
look too promising, a long path opening looks possible on both 20 and 17
meters around 2300-2330 UTC. The flux is 69 and the K is 0. Let's hope the
K
stays low for the next week to keep those polar paths open.

Nelson, KU0A
