Comment on [UPDATE] XZ2A – Myanmar by Simon XZ2A

Latest update – I decided to go on-air from my temporary Naypyitaw QTH, prior to my trip back to Bangkok and move to a better location on my return. So I’m only using a very compromise antenna right now. However, as the band closed up for the night (Friday 23rd), I managed QSOs with several stations in Ukraine and with A45XR in Oman.

Please look for my FT-8 signals over the weekend 24th/25th on 15 metres. I know it is CW/SSB contest weekend and I will NOT being using SSB, to avoid creating a pile-up. I’ll stick to digital for this weekend 🙂
