Miracle Whip

Since my 2013 stroke, I have not been in our loft. Last night, one of my sons brought down a box and in it was my old Miracle Whip antenna! Later, I shall try it on FT8, probably on 15m.

UPDATE 1057z:  I decided to go on 20m FT8 initially. Within a few minutes I have already been reported by 16 stations with the Miracle Whip on the shack windowsill and the FT817ND!

UPDATE 1154z:  Now on 15m FT8 with the Miracle Whip on the shack windowsill. I was only on for a short while but the best DX was a spot of me from 3365km away.

UPDATE 1221z:   Now on 30m QRP FT8 with the Miracle Whip on the shack windowsill. 20 spots of my QRP. Even on 30m it works pretty well.

UPDATE 1221z:  On 40m FT8 with the Miracle Whip. 7 spots of my QRP within the first 3 minutes.

 

UPDATE 2008z:  153 stations spotted on 20m FT8 RX today, so far, with the Miracle Whip.
