Re: Newbie from Hereford
I have had good results from mine so far, 5 and 9 all around europe, just waiting for some good prop now to see if it can make the trip stateside, im only using around 20w radio power too.
Im moving qth soon so hoping to try a beam in the coming months and also keeping my eyes open for a cheap hf radio.

Re: Newbie from Hereford
Yes a lot of EU atm, keep an eye on cluster pages, can be a good indication of conditions and I will always report active and interesting stations. I try to keep it live updated as much as I can when on the radio accross all bands
