Me, I’ve work virtually nothing this week except China, but on 18MHz.
So that doesn’t count for this article.
Most popular on Ten Metres, well different stations most every day. ZD7FT (St. Helena), SV2 and SV6 (Greece both /B), 7Q6 and 7Q7 (Malawi), 5T5PA (Mauritania) and TC1HUT (Turkey Technofest) amongst others.
And an apology is in order to Richard, M7RJS. He sent in two reports which got shunted into the wrong folder and so were not included in August. So please accept this apology and do send in more reports, I’ll be extra careful.
Mark, G0NMY , worked the following on 16th Sept 2019 all 10w qrp to 5/8 vertical:
TM41CDXC 5/9, EA1RCI 5/5, IK4LZH 5/9, VP8LP +00dB FT4 ATNO, VP8NO -06dB FT8 lotw confirmed atno, 5T5PA -10dB FT8 ATNO, EA1HTF -06dB FT8, EA3GOM -10dB F.
He says, “I called for ages on CW but got no replies (QRP) here. So moved to FT4 and FT8 and up popped the Falkland Islands. Really pleased with that one. TEP I recon, doubt it was F2? Anyway I have been monitoring 10m all this week but heard nothing.”
Thanks for the Stoke support, Mark but I think we need a superhuman effort. Pulis back?

Sun: Blank again for the last 22 days.
Well the cricket season is nearly over (pun!) but is being much affected by rain.
Footy is back but Stoke drew against Brentford 0 – 0 last week and lost in the League cup against Crawley, on penalties! Notts Forrest Friday evening. I’ll stay home and watch it on the telly. We need a miracle.
