Hi all, finally back on air... ^^
The Chesterfield DX-pedition is active since some days but conditions are not very good here right now, well, maybe their timing too ? Calling for "EU ONLY" on 12M SSB when we're still in the night as for an example let me perplex...
The "good" openings with Western Europe are shorts and not used, IMHO.
Well, no problem, it should work in the next days, I hope so.
At the moment, I managed to work them only on 20M CW for an ALL TIME NEW ONE !
This is my worked DXCC #313 (I have 314 with 5A1AL but it is not valid at DXCC so statistics are updated now) and my worked IOTA #493 !
I hope to put up and properly tune my vertical tomorrow or in the next days in order to be 100% operational on HF bands...
Good luck to all !

Hi, I received 7X2JV QSL confirming our 12M SSB QSO in October 2014...
It was strangely my only QSO with Algeria on this band !
7X is now confirmed from 80M to 10M in the 3 modes...
Will have to wait for any activity on 160M or 6M a day to add new band to this entity.

Hey hey...
Just a little post to show you the reason of my "silence" all summer long :
Yes, I also have another hobby : VTT ! Started 2 years ago as running & football, I pratice it especially during summer.
And as this summer was very quiet on DX activity (I missed some interesting IOTAs of course), I decided to have a complete break with radio, in order to be back in some weeks, when some good DX-peditions will be on air !
Actually, the vertical is still down and dismantled, as the beams (only down the pylon as you maybe can see on the photo ^^).
I have previewed a complete clean of the antennas before going up again...
Stay tuned, be right back soon ;)
