3D2AG - Fiji Isl. on 60m band CW...

Did you worked Fiji Isl. on 60m band CW? If you are looking for anybody there then try 3D2AG !

OPERATING SCHEDULE: The 60m operating times are 0530 to 0700 UTC (For EU and USA) and 1000 to 1200 UTC (for USA) on 5358.5 / 5405 KHz CW mode.

 

If working 3D2AG between 0500 to 1200 UTC, please be patient especially on LB up to 20m as there is very violent local square-wave QRN (S9+ at times) from various domestic sources in the neighborhood. Sometimes this QRN is so bad that CW is not possible at all. 

3D2AG STATION SETUP (FIJI, OC-016): using IC-7300 / ICOM 706MKIIG / FT-757GX / TS-440S and Hustler 4BTV or home-brew OCFD 80-10m antenna, monoband inverted-Vees for 60m, 30m, 17m and 12m. On 160m, Inverted-L antenna on 18m high Spider pole. For VHF: 5-el Cushcraft A50-S Yagi on 6m and Cushcraft A144-20T 10-el yagi on 2m. For QRO low bands: ACOM 600S linear.

Beware of pirates! If in doubt of a QSO, please email me first.

Britain’s HM Queen Elizabeth II died peacefully at Balmoral on Thu, 8-Sep-22

London Bridge is down...

Britain’s HM Queen Elizabeth II died peacefully at Balmoral on Thursday, 8-Sep-2022 at the age of 96, ending a generation-spanning, seven decade reign that made her a beacon of stability in a tumultuous world.

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was more than a monarch. She defined an era...

Queen Elizabeth II was a stateswoman of unmatched dignity and constancy who deepened the bedrock alliance between the United Kingdom and the rest of the world. She helped make the relationship special...

Coronation will herald new age, but first it is time to mourn...

Do something with it!

Look for last 30 days DX-cluster spots from 60m band ! 

Are you happy with that...?!?! Are you satisfied with the 60m band current situation...?!?! No?

So do something with it!

...and don't dig the grave of CW and SSB by playing PC games on 60m either!
