Anyone up for a QSO on 80m? I just got my tuner today and think I have it set up so I can tx on 80, but it would be nice to try transmitting and find out if I can be heard.

Cool, glad you have the extra, It's got to be propagation, move to where there are more stations and call CQ, there used to be a lot of clicks on 75M so I don't know what kind of answer you'll get but at least try.

If you are up for an attempt over the weekend, shoot me a text or something and we can try. I did end up having 2 QSOs on 80M. One with a guy in Ontario and one with a guy in Anguilla, so at least some signal is getting out. |

Apologies, I did not state that I was offline. I monitored the thread and the 7300 for a bit. I'm hearing a lot more lately, I guess the SFI is useful. Not looking to QSO this morning though I am hearing AL pretty well on 40m.
