Title: DX Report 4/14/17
Post by: k4lrx on April 14, 2017, 07:48:26 AM
We have a few good ones to report, according to an article in QST we are now in the process of starting a new Cycle and that is Cycle 25. Now, we hope in the next couple of years the bands will start to improve and we can be in the dx business full steam ahead. At least that is what we hope, what will happen, who Knows?

Let's take a look and see what we have heard, or worked.

YJ0YM 7.147 1100Z

R1ANC remember this one is a South Pole Base  10.107.6 0300Z

3D2AG/P this is Rotuma and a separate entity 14.197 0420Z

Tz4AM 18.079 2150ZZ

J5W 21.300 up 1815Z 

Note, another station also J5B this one seems centered on Europe and appears to ignore U.S. stations

J5W appears to be the best for U.S. Stations, we have worked this station with ease on 20.

Seems the bands peak up for a while in the afternoon, but the window is short, grab them while you have a chance.
