- Short openning of 02 September 2008 : Report from Glenn, ZS2GK in KF47kt:
Hi Phil,
It is just after
10:00 pm local time (20:00 UTC) and I can hear your beacon running. It
is very faint, just above the noise with the pre-amp on.
I have not contacted
you as I feel conditions are not good enough for a voice contact. If
the signal improves I will contact you along with a few others here
locally.
The beacon was in and out
of the noise from about 19:40UTC until it faded at 20:20 UTC, just not
good enough to have a QSO and that was with the pre-amp running.
...It was probably strong enough for a CW QSO although by 20:20UTC it was gone.
The general situation :
1-The Hepburn predictions look fine
2-The radiosounding data
Not so nice for PE, but look for Durban...
310 51 305.6 316.4 306.3
3-The surface pressure chart
4-The visible map
