DX soundbites

10m QRP SSB DXCC was achieved over 30 years ago, so I no longer actively chase DX. If I chance on DX that is fine, but I cannot see the point of just going after it purely for another tick. 8m is different as this is real radio science. 

These days I am far more interested in radio propagation. My favourite HF band remains 10m.  Antennas are small and when it is wide open the world can be worked with low power on SSB..

Mostly I am on WSPR or FT8 because of my poor voice. I am told fewer people are on SSB these days. Chasing DX on FT8 seems to be the favourite activity. I guess there is less need for amateur radio for those just wanting to chat. Some years ago there was little choice.

If you want to know what some DX sounds like you may want to look at this site.

You may like to hear what some DX stations sounded like. These recordings were made last year. There is a link on my main website.

SW broadcasters

This link has been on before, but if you are like me you will have enjoyed shortwave broadcasters from around the world and collected their QSL cards.

These days the shortwaves are very different with far fewer English language services. Many choose to use the internet instead. It is cheaper and reaches a bigger audience with much better quality.

So, many of these sounds are from a very different era. Enjoy.
