When you key up,you never know who is gonna respond to you,specialy when the band is quiet!Many times a quiet band give the best contacts in my experience!When the skip is pooring in it´s much harder to make a decente contact in that hornets nest of noise!cheers buddy
Good job, Al. Great to see your video. Got to talk to Maxi, last week. No real qso but got to hear her voice. Thinking of John and hoping to catch you on air. Marten,13EC39, 13RCT12, 13LR029
It's great to see my favorite Al out getting some outdoor radio time. Qatar, Paraguay, Indonesia, Reunion Island, WOW! And yes, we know you're secretly using that giant tower over there. lol ✌✌
We'll would you believe it ALLAN nice and quiet but getting some lovely copy's, very nice work mate off to Milton Keynes tomorrow to pickup a SS9900 sires 4 , so as soon as I've got that on I'll get my ears on , thanks again for your shows and hope the other half gets better soon Alan from LUTON 💯👍
Brilliant content as per usual Al.. did hear you earlier this evening on the net but couldn't get to you as the conditions didnt allow and hi swr on the antenna.. hopefully will get that qso soon .. 73s CT5060 Mikey .
Oh shame about the high swr I was listening, to the net but missed most of it as was having dinner and stuff, will have to get out again for it soon. Cheers bud.
Long first hop conditions at times middle east/ Turkey etc to white Russian area first bounce missing out Europe and 2 and 3 bounce into Asia and then Antipodes.... Seasons changing as well as grey lines and longer days.👁️👁️👍
Maybe bud ive spoke loads of statside, just haven't hit the west coast yet, conditions from states might be closing for a few months now😢. Let me know if im in your log cheers.
Well done, great contacts. Can I ask if you run off a sperate battery or off the van battery? Just trying to plan for some summer static mobile work if I should get a separate battery or not.
Yeah ive been running off a separate leisure battery which I have afixed in the back, ive done a few videos on the liesure battery, and have a relay kit that charges it up. Cheers
@@2E0LMI ruclips.net/user/shortsMrjVfiYZrvQ?feature=share just a quick short I did on it , but also a more in-depth look at it as well ruclips.net/video/V4lkQvi6kZk/видео.html. This one was before I got it in the back of the van.

Great stuff Al, just wondering would your perch be ok for 4 ton motorhome?.
Its Paul from Exhall btw.
@@urbanfox53 LOl proberly not its a bit of a small spot. you never know though , proberly be best at the dassets .
is it true the thunderbolt antenna can be used between 10-20 with an atu?
I can't see why it wouldn't work, but a great SWR across 11m so probably wouldn't have to tune it on 10, and it may be resonant on 20m
