FT8

FT8 is quite a mode,  tons and tons of activity and with PSK Reporter you get almost instant access to where you are being heard. 

Today I have been active on 18m below each icon represents a unique country that I received.    I uploaded a total of 2,683 signal reports in the past 12 hours ....

And each flag below represents a signal report from my 5 watt TX!

Log Book Update

Been busy ......going to have to come up with a better way of recording the LOGS!!!!!

For the record since the last " log book update " 

FT8

Yeah ,  I am now one of those guys.  Hey who doesn't love a mode where you can hit the " CQ Button" ,  go grab a cold beer and when you return wella ,   a QSO to log!   

Was messing with the FT8 mode @ 10w on 40m for a couple of hours after midnight today. Each of the dots represents a country I was hear in during that time! 

Picked up an FT850 and a Sound Link just to put together something that was CAT,  an easy way to interface to the PC for the PSK modes as well as soemthing that I could easily access over the Internet if I choose to do so.   Originally I was thinking a Linear but decided that I would get more enjoyment out to the new rig and digital modes!    Maybe next year I will go QRO!
