Amateur Radio DX Contacts / Reports - Sept to Dec 2022

Post by MrWeetabix »

Hi all, been a while since we had this topic setup. I think we'll do it quarterly from now on, so in 4 month batches

Please post your Amateur Radio DX reports below. This can be from stations heard, worked or even rumours of what's out there if your sources are reliable! All modes are welcome.

Some paths open down to the Middle East on 10m this morning! Also heard Malawi! And as I posted this, Angola popped up!

Last few days has brought back nice memories of the band being wide open to NA for hours on end. I even decided to go out /m for some 10m fun, lots of NA in the log.
Far east Asia is becoming a daily occurrence around 11am to me in Devon and also the odd VK.
Long may this continue to improve.
Long live SSB and CW!!

Sunday the bands were WIIIIIIIIIIIIIDE open. all HF to 10m. Yesterday was less so. I heard some US but mostly EU stuff on 10m and 11m. I had a venture through HF last night and found it relatively quiet, so unsure if we've had a solar event which has screwed the bands or not :-/
