[TVARC] KH1 Observations

[K2PS Pete Stafford]

He's still in there.  And even stronger now - up to about +13 at peaks.
But.as I've been calling now for about 20 minutes, he's NEVER worked anyone
outside of Asia:  JA and HL.  Lots of US stations calling.  He's using two
streams, and so able to work two stations concurrently.

 

Whoa, just saw him work stateside!  Finally.  But now back to JAs.

 

I'm calling up at 3364Hz, and I noticed that K1JT himself is calling up high
in the band.  So probably a good idea.  (Click on Rx All Freqs and you'll be
able to see everyone calling - or maybe don't.  It's discouraging!)

 

One other thing: keep your eye on your Enable Tx button.  Even if that "WD"
indicator in the bottom right corner says 5 minutes, it's lying.  We get two
minutes before the transmit cycle times out, so you'll need to keep
clicking.

 

If FT8 isn't for you, he's working CW, 7023 and listening up.  Lots of
callers.  Seems about S3 here.

 

Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone,

 

73, Pete, K2PS
