30M calling CQ
Is 10140 or so where the PSK people hang out on 30m? I've been down at 10138 based on info from the internet and all I ever see is JT65 users. Dave AK7DB #1327

Late night / early morning activity?
Well, I hit the 120 mark this morning so now most of the easy ones are in the book. I do send out CQ's even when the band looks dead and have had some luck with it. I'll keep going until I get them. I

20m really dead right now
I've been calling CQ for the past 30 minutes, haven't seen a single trace anywhere on my waterfall. Is it that dead for everyone right now? I'm running my mobile setup right now so I just wondered if

Brunei
There was a Brunei station on for quite a while this morning on 20m but I just couldn't make contact with him. Had a decent signal into the SW as well. Really wanted that one. I missed Finland 2 days

Just realized that I've been on 7070 instead of 7040 which is probably why 40m always looks so dead when I'm on it at night. When I started using PSK31 a few months back the frequency list I found did
