As the 10m JT65 DX seems to have ended for the night, I might try JT65 on a completely different band this evening and overnight. I have yet to choose a band. Although I have tried WSPR on most bands, I have yet to try JT65 on the lower HF bands or MF. This could be fun. I shall need to use the auto ATU. Whatever band is chosen, I shall be beaconing "B G3XBM JO02".
UPDATE 1945z: In the end I chose 30m using my Par antenna via the ATU. We'll see what happens. The local noise level is very high compared with 10m.
UPDATE 2014z: This is puzzling. No spots given or received as yet. Am I using the right frequency? I was using 10.138MHz but maybe I should try 40m instead? I have now QSYed to 7.039MHz on 40m but still just 1 spot. Compared with 40m and 30m WSPR, results so far have been very disappointing.
UPDATE 2100z: Would someone please let me know the correct JT65 frequencies in Europe? Judging by the levels of activity I am sure I cannot be using the correct frequencies.
UPDATE 2122z: In view of my confusion, I think I am going to move to 14.076MHz. Moved to 20m at 2125z.
UPDATE 2134z: Here was me expecting loads of 20m JT65 spots! So far, nothing given or received. Maybe I am assuming these HF bands would be "open".
