Subject: [VK-VHF] New 24GHz distance record
This evening Russell VK3ZQB & Alan VK3XPD extended the existing 24GHz
distance record from 200.8km to 230.05km.
The contact was made at 1010 UTC on the 27/11/2006 with 5 x 5 reports
exchanged on SSB and as the contact proceeded
signals increased to 5 x 9 both ways.
Russell was operating portable on Mount Warrnambool & Alan was
operating portable from Berwich in the Eastern suburbs of Melbourne.
A contact between VK3ZQB & VK5DK was also made on 24GHz over the
previous distance record straight after with signals exchanged at 5 x 9
both ways also on SSB.
Signals between Russell & Alan did deteriate on 24GHz later in the
evening.
A contact between Alan VK3XPD & VK5DK was attempted on 24GHz over a
400km + path without results, but contacts between
VK3XPD, VK3ZQB & VK5DK were made on 10GHz with 5 x 9 signals received
at all locations
