VP6DX on RTTY

k0wa@swbell.net


Got VP6DX on RTTY this evening.  Heard them on 20 CW, but the band died.  Tomorrow!  Nice RTTY Signal.  Good copy

Lee - K0WA



In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.  Is Common Sense divine?

They've been on both 20 and 30 meter RTTY today/this evening.  The
K3s sound very good except for the one on 15 Meter CW Wednesday
morning - it had a pretty severe "whoop" on keydown - probably a
power issue.   I have not heard any other "bad" signals out of them.

Yes!  They were solid 599 in WA.  Worked them RTTY yesterday using the CW paddles.  
Too cool!

I noticed that too.  While the anomally was consitant, it was only happening on the first element upon keydown and it did not
happen every time.  In fact I could listen for 5-10 minutes without hearing it and then it might occur a couple transmissions
in a row.  I was thinking a power supply problem as well.

Just worked them on 20 RTTY the same way!  They are really
putting out great sigs on most bands now.

I've been trying to snag the guys in Suriname--K8DD, W5JAY,
etc.  They are using PZ5DD, PZ5AY, and PZ5WW, the latter of
which will be their call in the contest.  They are using
K2's.  So far though, they haven't been able to dig me out,
and they are a bit weak here too.
