Another of the Caribbean islands, generally
represented on 20m by Edwin Nunez.
Conditions on the route to./from Chelmsford
were very patchy and the the difference of a few hundred
miles to Italy significantly changes the propagation pattern.
But most surprising was the asymmetry of the
path when the TX and RX points are swapped,
Swapping the transmit and receive sites suggests
a quite unusually asymmetric path, which explains why Edwin was
struggling to hear me - while he was fine over here.
The G8CYK callsign trips yet another
operator...
The call continues to be jumbled by the listening
stations - it's not their fault, it just seems to a brain
twister. I have asked Ofcom for a less challenging combination -
like G8WSP - but it seems I am stuck having to repeat it many
times most of the time.
All the right letters, but not
necessarily in the right order...
