15m Mono Band Dipole......de MW0BBU.

Had an idea to give 15m a good go as it seemed to be picking up,so down came the Doublet and up went 22ft of wire through a 1:1 Balun,the results speak for themselves as to how it is going...

The log shows some of the better DX , many other EU staions have been worked and in the CQWW quite a few US stations on CW.

Just goes to show what can be done with a simple dipole, needless to say things will only get better as the cycle continues up.

Me and my big mouth :0(

A couple of days ago I announced that four metres had been quiet in this part of West Wales....how wrong I was ! :0)

These are some of the countries worked by Bill MW0BYS on the 4 metre band:

G, OZ, LA, 9A, S5, OM, I, CT, OK.....Nice one Bill

JT65 from the log of MW0BYS

Nice contacts Bill, that JT65 certainly gets out....I think you have convinced me to get a pc and try out this mode.

from the log of MW0BYS

I agree with Bill, it must be bloody warm on the Isle of Man.... :o)

From the Log of MW0BYS

Six metres is alive and well....here's the proof..... :0)

CW de MW0MJB

More CW de MW0MJB

AND MORE CW de mw0mjb .....Lovely mode :o)
