Antennas all up

November 8, 2017

I had a brief conversation with N7QT, Rob, today.  He said all the HF antennas are up.  Weather is hot and they are exhausted.  They should be back to 1819 tomorrow, the originally listed frequency.  Also when they do 40 SSB again they will use 7120 approx. .

There was some question on a station signing VK9MA this morning, 11-07-2017 around 10-11 GMT, 40 M CW.  He said to his knowledge there had been no 40 CW today.  So if you worked someone on 40 CW today probably a pirate.

Also there is a VK9AR on an IOTA trip which counts as Australia that has been confused with VK9MA some.

Some QSOs are not being uploaded to clublog and I will talk further with him about that.

Remember OC and AF can call anytime including CQ  EU , NA, AS etc.    When CQ NA that means NA and SA okay to call.

They have been doing some FT8 on some bands but not clear to what extent.  Call them somewhere other than where they last transmitted as they will move to your frequency  to finish the QSO.
