Thinking about getting a Ranger 2950 dx6 and seeing if sideband skip is still there I have been away from radio for a few years seems like the forum is not what it used to be sadly

Conditions are still good. It comes and goes as always. RCI dx radio's are the best way to go as far as 10, 11, 12 meter radio's.

Charliebrown. We are usually on air about 8pm till 10pm our time so I think that should be around 4pm till 6pm your time. Do you use DMR? I have not seen the message yet but thanks for your thoughts my friend. You might also hear us on 10mts freq 28.360 if conditions are open.

I do DMR when I am within repeater range but that is not often. I haven't bought anything to connect to my computer yet. Thanks for the info. I hope condition's will be great. Right now where going to get a lot of rain and wind in our state from the storm in Florida this SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. I will try the 10 meter and channel 13

I think the time here will be 10:00 AM till 12:00 That is when I usually pick up broadcast on 11 meter from the UK when condition's are good. However I will try both times and both channel 13 11 meter and 10 meter 28.3600 I will have my beam pointed your direction vert. side.

I made contact wit a 4 double four yesterday in Scotland . On 27.385 LSB I tried the 10 meter frequency and did not have anyone on from your country. I tried channel 13 and I heard nothing from your country. But on 27.385 LSB I had a lot of UK contacts. P.S. on11 meter I am double nickel 55 There are a few that have taken my number but they curse. I am a Christian. I do not. I will continue listening for you to make contact. What is your ham license number.

Charliebrown, you'll find my ham call on my profile. My 11 Mtr call is SC858 from the 108 division.
Dale , we are on at various times at weekends sometimes most of the day in the winter months.
We have a North & Northeast Scotland net on the first Friday of each month on 27.365 USB from 1900hrs - 2100hrs our time so if conditions permit you both might catch us on there.
