I find the playing field much more e...Hello Phil, <br /><br />I find the playing field much more equal on 30 meters because it eliminates much of those BIG stations. I'm also at a disadvantage because of minimum space and very small antennas...but, as you say, it's still fun to try and always listen for new DX. I've found some stations using "2" up due to the ugliness in the pile up. When that happens, I just move on somewhere else. It would be VERY rare for me to work them. hihi<br /><br />The clusters can be both a blessing and a curse depending on the situation. I have the best success when they're "in the clear and open". <br /><br />I worked my longest distance station yet about a week ago when I heard A45XR in Oman. A distance of about 7500 miles from here. <br /><br />One of these days, I'll be able to catch Alaska and Hawaii but they both seem to be an unusual bounce" from here. I'll continue to try.... <br /><br />I'm with you on Washington. Very discouraging to say the least. <br /><br />72's Jspikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14751088160139882564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8489942416795414473.post-25565961821480214282013-03-02T07:41:01.767-09:002013-03-02T07:41:01.767-09:00Phil,
Good morning from the #hamr shackadelic zone...Phil,<br />Good morning from the #hamr shackadelic zone here in Shell Beach! Thanks for the mention, Bro, right on. Yeah, I'm not happy with the situation in Washington either, on the other hand, focusing on low band antennas is a great idea. It seems, unless something changes, Cycle 24 is giving all its going to give. I'm beginning to think about Cycle 25 and where I want to be at its peak -- DRR strategic thinking. Alright, you take care, relax this weekend, and congratulations on your #hamr achievement!<br />73, Scot KA3DRRsrmorrison1https://www.blogger.com/profile/15371935926000119681noreply@blogger.com
