Great contacts! Heard Brazil coming in strong last night around 8.30pm on the triple-five but had to QRT unfortunately or my wife would have had me as I had some chores to sort out. Three division always a goodun'! 73's Wally

Got two QSOs into 9 division Canada last night, lots of 2 division coming through also but signal strength in and out making QSO difficult, heard some 43 Australia calls too, benos aires came in strong the night before but to much QRM, fun times.

I'm sure you'll do well with the 11m challenge Jimmy judging by your contacts up to now.
As you've witnessed yourself the QRM is bad my way but I will still have a damn good go even just for the fun of it all.

Ya 11m is hopping lately, got a QSO into 50 European Russia with an entertaining operator. Also got into Venezuela twice. Lots of signals from 2 division and even tried a 91 division call with no luck yet. Happy Dxing from 29CT078.

Brilliant reading about the contacts! Hope to have my first dipole up over the next few days in my loft. TBH i am bricking it a bit as I have no clue when it comes to the Q codes and making contacts, I will learn over time but yes, it's a bit daunting. Anyway, I will get my 11m dipole sorted out first and then worry about contacts. Is it wrong that I have started to read about fan dipoles?
