12,600km opening from Europe to the Falkland Islands on the 40 MHz band - 10th April 2022

 


This really is an amazing reception report. Read on...

On Sunday the 10th of April 2022, Phil EI9KP was carrying out some experiments on the new 40 MHz band. 

From 09:00 to 12:00 UTC, he tried transmitting on WSPR on 40.680 MHz with the hope that some stations in England might hear the signal but to no avail.

In the afternoon, EI9KP switched to FT8 and managed to successfully decode the FT8 signal from the EI1KNH beacon near Dublin on 40.013 MHz.

ED;  I have used a Delta Loop very successful on 10 meters in the past from Mossel Bay.  This is really a great antenna and I am not surprised at all that it worked so well on 40 Mhz.  Congratulations to all those involved and thanks to EI7GL for the report.
