First 4 m QSOs done

Finally found a bit time late this evening and worked my first two 70 MHz tropo QSOs with Greg, SP3RNZ, in JO92 (300 km) and Marek, SP2MKO, in JO93 (267 km). Also tried with SP9HWY in JO90 (465 km) whom I could copy a few times up to 529 but unfortunately he couldn’t copy me. We are running about the same power and antennas but Jurek suffers from high noise levels in his city QTH. So we will have to try again with him during the next few days. Tropo condx are also not very stable right now, lots of QSB on all (VHF) bands …
