Ten Update
It's really been a sparse festive season on Ten Metres. Thursday looks a
bit better but I've included just about any one and their sons and
daughters if they were awake this week!
David, VK8AA takes me to task saying, "During the ARRL 10m event notes you
made, you asked if there were any VK's trying ... well I was #3 in your
lists for both sat and sunday 10th Dec :-}... consider that 95% of QSO's
were over 6000km shows it is not a simply task from here. Google VK8AA
and you will see what I've been doing."
Fine David but you totally miss the point, "Where are the VK contest
stations to get near to ZX5J. I'm sure there must be some VKs out there
with the space and inclination to give them a run for their money." is
what I asked. Not are the VKs trying? VK activity and yours in particular
is better than most and certainly better than G. BUT you have a big land
mass and some one/group surely has enough dosh and time to put together a
world beating team in a prime spot with good kit!!
As a VK call holder myself and with a son in Oz (not licenced) I tend to
keep an radio eye on that island you have down under even if you have got
the Ashes back, temporarily.

Plenty of VKs in there even the odd ZL. I guess I'm guilty my self of
switching on and giving a quick swish up and down the band and in 15
seconds concluding 10m is dead to the UK. More persistence is required. I
feel a New Year resolution coming on. But I'm not going to air it on here.
F4EYE, Denis, sent this," Just a little e-mail, for to give you an
internet address about 10 meters.
http://f5oux.xooit.com/portal.php
That is THE forum about 10 meters band in France. If you want to put this
link into your 10meters letter, It will be great."
Now this is a great forum with lots of interesting stuff, but it is in
French. And I have to say, Denis did apologise for his English in his note
to me, but I kid you not his English is a whole lot better than my French.
Spanish,OK, German iffy. French, un peu.
Contests: NRAU 04/01/07 but then nothing until 14/01/07 with the DARC 10m
comtest, 09:00 to 11:00. Its really a placid time of year contest wise.
Sun: Returning sunspot 930 sparked intense auroras in mid-December, but it
no longer poses a threat for strong solar flares. There is a cluster of
sun spots with 933 being the biggest.
