VHF: map of the 2m beacon reception
In less than 3 months after putting the D4C/B beacon in the air again, our 2m signal on 144.436 MHz has been heard further west and north, on both occasion well over 4000km via Tropospheric propagation mode.
The map is visible here: http://www.opencontest.org/qsomap/qsomap.html?map=06062015120637000000
The two most remarkable one-way QSO are:
- 06th May 2015 PJ4VHF 0100-0230 UTC (90 minutes) almost 4’700 kmĀ ARRL report and at DXNEWS
- 20th May 2015 EI3KD & EI4DQ 15.11 almost 4’200 km. Mark’s report
Thank you for having submitted or published videos of the receptions.
