Good conditions today
« on: July 06, 2019, 04:56:47 PM »

I worked R7DA on 20 CW using 5 watts MTR3B QRP rig and a simple end-fed wire.

I have been copying strong UA0 and JA stations all afternoon on 17 meter FT8, and I even copied BH4IGO...first time I have copied China on 17 meters FT8.  First time i n a LONG time that I copied China.

Last night I was easily copying ZL on 80 meters FT8 at their sunset, and this morning at my sunrise several VK and ZL were excellent copy on 80 FT8.

Does "copy" mean receive only or were they able to hear you and complete a QSL?

Good question - I heard them but did not need the DX so I did not call them.
