[OKDXA] FT8 MODE ON BANDS

[garylm at kiamichiwb.org]

THANKS STEVE,  JUST WORKED 3D2RRR ROTUMA ON 15M SSB FOR NEW ONE ON 15M SSB.
BARELY HEARING THEM HERE AND FIRST TIME THIS EXPEDITION.
HAD ALL COUNTRIES WORKED IN ALASKA,  342 CONFIRMED BUT HAD TO START OVER WHEN
I MOVED TO LOWER 48 STATES HI.
I JUST ENJOY CHATTING WITH OTHER HAMS ON MOSTLY CW, BUT USE MOST MODES SOME.
BEEN PLAYING HAM RADIO FOR 46YRS AND 11 MTR ABOUT 15 OR MORE YEARS BEFORE THAT.
I REALLY ENJOY HEARING ABOUT OTHER COUNTRIES CUSTOMS ETC.  HAVE MET SOME OF THE MAJOR DX'ERS, IT IS NICE TO MEET SOMEONE EYEBALL TO EYEBALL THAT YOU HAVE WORKED OVER THE YEARS.
HOPE YOU GET THE COUNTRIES THAT  YOU NEED.  LOTS OF THINGS HAVE REALLY CHANGED OVER THE YEARS, HARD FOR ME TO KEEP UP WITH THE CHANGES IN RADIO ETC,  WE USE TO NOT HAVE COMPUTERS, WE JUST TUNED UP AND DOWN THE BANDS UNTIL WE FOUND SOMEONE TO CALL HI. ARE CALL CQ.  USE TO HAVE TO LOG EVERY TIME YOU WERE ON THE RADIO WORKING SOMEONE.
WELL BETTER GET OUT OF HERE HI.

LOL if skin was that sensitive, I wouldn’t be a ham. Too many folks with very strong opinions and life is too short to be upset over opinion differences.

No offense meant, none taken.

I APPOLIGIZE IF I HURT ANYONES FEELINGS ABOUT FT8 AND FT4 MODES.
BUT THE ONLY LOW POWER BANDS ARE 30M AND 60M FOR ANY MODE.
GOOD LUCK
