5m more up in the air


6-meter antenna
5el 50-ohm 8.5 dBd pointed 180° 5° elevation


But noisy conditions from neighbours... :-(
I have 3 sources of noise. It is 50Hz noise, so probably a gas light starter x 2











Makes it impossible to work weak-signals from scatters or the moon..

QRT. Pointing antennas south for RX


Many pings from DL1OBF

Many pings from Wilfried..


QRV both from JO59 and JP68.

Since I work 2 QTH's at the same time, I have to call with locator first so the Receiving station know which one is active.



































Pretty good distance - 1973Km.... It's possible, Uli.



Weather: JP68:














Weather JO59:












And now.. 3 rigs.. 144, 50(JO59) and 50(JP68)

2 sessions of WSJT-X 2.0

Running Both JO59 and JP68
Listening MSK144 on both QTH's @ 6-meter
















The way to configure it:
@ shortcut, configure "target" to the needed radio configuration;
C:\WSJT\wsjtx20\bin\wsjtx.exe --rig-name=IC-9100

Not the best...
Neighbour came home - no RX in JO59 then..
