[Moon] VE6TA EME Activity

[Grant Furnald]

I enjoyed a very nice weekend of EME participating in the Dubus 3400 Mhz segment.

The weather was not a big factor, but signals were sure down on Saturday as compared to Sunday.
Nevertheless 13 stations were worked on random, including 3 new intials to bring me to 21 on this band.

Stations worked were as follows:
K5GW, G3LTF, OK1CA, OK1KIR, K2UYH, DL4MEA, OZ6OL, HB9JAW# and DXCC, DL1YMK#, LX1DB, PA0BAT, G4NNS, WD5AGO#.
Heard were; G3LQR, WW2R, and WA6PY?

The big signal awards belong to several stations this year.  K5GW, OK1CA, K2UYH, DL1YMK, LX1DB to name a few.  For me however, HB9JAW was head and shoulders above the rest.  Good job Michel!
Signal strengths and activity are improving every year.  I really like the Dubus format as it causes a critical mass to be generated on these sparsely populated bands.


As an exclamation point to a great few days on the moon, I also worked KP4AO today on 432 .045 Mhz SSB.  What a beautiful SSB signal.  Just like 20 meters, and a real thrill to work an installation with such history and technical acheivement.
I am sure many others will find their way into the Arecibo log in April.  

73's for now.
