First operation on 6cm EME after frantic efforts to get the system going just two days before the 6cm leg of the Dubus EME contest
Really pleased with the results...!!!! Just 10W at the feedpoint...!!!
This is what my echoes sound like
I was seeing 16.5dB Sun Noise and 1.5dB Moon noise
Here's a few photo's... more to come when I take the system off the dish

   

Here's the 6cm log so far... reports removed until contest logs submitted

Future Activity

Next activity will be on 13cm - 15th & 16th June 2013, and on 9cm - 29th & 30th June

23cm

All that you need to make a JT65c QSO with me is >20dBi antenna and >100W... why not give it a try sometime, you might be surprised.

I can be QRV again over the next few days on CW and JT65c, if anyone else wants to try then please E Mail me - howard(at)g4cch(dot)com

When I am QRV (but not during contests), you can usually find me on 1296.015 CW or 1296.085 JT65c. I have Internet access in the shack, and check HB9Q's logger and ON4KST microwave chat for possible activity. 

13cm

Please email me if you want a sked, otherwise you should find me during the various activity weekends... I will announce when I am going to be on.

 

Worked All States (WAS)

So far I have had 23cm EME QSO's with stations in 37 of the 50 US States. To complete WAS I need the following 13 states:  AL, AR, DE, KY, MN, MS, MT, NE, NV, OR, SC, SD & TN.

I would like to hear from anyone who could activate these states on 23cm EME either on CW or JT65... please email me if you have a 23cm EME capable station or have plans to build one, or if you intend to do an expedition to any of the listed states.
