Hi Dave, we had a short FT8 on 15m 5/10/2024 with you. Nice to contact Davis, I was a comms officer there, wintering in 1988. I remember October was a good month to be out traveling via the sea ice on a jolly!! Best wishes, David.

Hi , I am active on HF mostly FT8 on 20 metres to 10 metres, and some attempts at WSPR on 6 metres. I have a 2 metre 13 element yagi and a 300 watt amplifier and will become active on moonbounce shortly, after promising initial tests earlier in the year running only 90 watts. 23cm is operational with a 2.4 metre dish and 70 watts into a septum feed. Some blown up LNA problems and a sticking TR relay has caused difficulties but its is working ok. So far i have logged 16 countries on 23cm. 73 Dave VK0DS , Senior Comms tech Davis station, Antarctica
