Surprised by a huge pile up on 20m

Anyone who knows me knows that I’m keen on S2S. And in the case of double activations, leave the spot to Uwe, DK8OA.

Hello Chris. Thanks for the QSO. I am not surprised by the pile up. Your Audio is outstanding. Very clear natural and easy to hear, even for a deaf old man as I am. Thank you for hearing my call and including me in the Video. Thank you also for the QSO today. Your Audio was as before, Excellent and easy for chasers to complete their QSO. Best wishes, 73 de Paul M0CQE.

Hi Chris,

You have reminded me that I really ought to try to record my own QSOs when taking part in the Transatlantic S2S Event coming up - if I get any QSOs, that is. I must put some batteries in my Zoom H4N and take it with me…

Cheers, Rob

Hi Rob,

the KX2 makes it easy for me. I always have the monitor turned on even with SSB to control my modulation. I also connected the headphone output to earplugs and the to audio input from the cell phone. This is for the brilliant app Morse Expert, because my brain still needs help decoding telegraphy.
