| Worked 10 Meter FM for the first time today. Picked up Netherlands, Germany, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico and worked Cayman Islands from the car. Also picking up a repeater on 29.660 at the moment. |
| I have heard some stations on 10 meter fm, never talked to anyone. But I did talk to a guy in Colorado on 10m AM, he was on some old Collins rig running 60w, I was running 35 on the 706. It was the first time I worked AM on HF. Now I have an old boat anchor on the way to restore. AM is addictive! |

Quoted: Been open all afternoon. KL8DX in Alaska said he hopped on 10m to give a buddy a call and ended up in a pileup all afternoon. Man, you aren't kidding! I haven't heard this many stations on 10M since the cycle peak around 1980. ETA Just worked JG1LRE on 10M.

It's fading out here now, but I was hearing LOTS of stations on 10, both SSB and FM. I didn't work any DX because the pile-ups were huge and I got on a little too late today, maybe tomorrow. Heard S. Korea for the first time!
I wonder if this has anything to do with the meteor activity? |
