Saturday it was Hamexpo 2024 (1200 visitors), since the creation of the microwaves stand, I have never see so many OM interested. Around twenty young and less young people have requested to receive Hyper magazine and to subscribe to our mailing list.

Hamexpo was the opportunity to meet friends, here a microwavers team, F1PYR, F4CKV, F8DLS and F1HNF

Sunday portable for 3 hours in the vineyards of Côteau du Layon IN97UD, 13 QSOs in 3 cm, 6 in 6 cm. DX 3 cm F1BOC 563 km, M0MHZ 497 km, ON4MU and ON7FI 492 km.

Back home (JN36DH) last QSOs 3 and 23 cm with atlantic coast friends in IN96PH.

Saturday it was #SudExpoRadio strong attendance at the exhibition as well as at the "hyper" stand, let's hope that new microwavers will be born !

My latest creation for my friend F1ADG, 10 GHz, 4 W, 60 cm. If you want to have correspondents you have to make stations for them 🤣

F6KAR radio club of CERN we work on the new 4.2 m dish. Under the antenna Steph F1TJJ at the origin of the project. Accomplice Philippe F5JWF and Jean-Paul F5AYE.

This afternoon F1ADG received its 10 GHz station, we validated the correct operation with QSOs by reflection on Mont Blanc. Four stations contacted F6HLD, F1GCX, F1MNQ and F5IQA.

Hello tomorrow, departure for Denia expe EG5SHF to join F5BUU and F5DJL already there. QRV 80 m to 1.5 cm. aprs.fi/#!call=a%2FF5A…

We received visits from several locals, including EA5JF, EA5DOM, EA5CLH, and EA5JK, very pleasant encounters. This is a non-exhaustive summary of our activities. The dream team: Jean-Luc F1BJD, Jean-Claude F5BUU, Jean-Louis F5DJL, and Jean-Paul F5AYE

Our 6:00 PM TV newscast on QS0-100 is still running, except in the event of technical incidents beyond our control...Jean-Luc F1BJD is present on QO-100 with numerous QSOs, as well as on 50 MHz.↓

Rain Scatter appeared today with SCPs over the Pyrenees, so we make a few QSOs with the Bordeaux / Toulouse axis. DATV on 70 and 23 cm is working, with a few QSOs with the Valencia and Barcelona OMs↓

Since three days, maritime propagation has arrived. The few French stations along the Mediterranean coast, we heard, have very strong signals on 23 cm and strong signals on 6 and 3 cm↓

EG5SHF Microwave Expedition in IM98XU on the Mediterranean coast, results after one week. On the SHF bands, there was no propagation at the beginning of the week. QSOs were limited to our Spanish neighbors on 3 and 6 cm, and F6DRO and F6HTJ on 23 cm (small signals).

This morning bouncing 3 and 6 cm on the Mont Blanc but few participants, the portables stations are not actives due to the bad weather conditions around.

Short activity with the 3 cm "backpack" station, 8 QSO, DX 473 and 428 km, 1 QSO by reflection on Mt Blanc with F4IPL located at 254 of Mt Blanc.

Hamradio meeting in Friedrichshafen, the camping is full, a lot of friends and some components in the fleamarket. Interesting conference : google.com/url?sa=t&sourc… See next year !

September JA in JN35BS, on 10 GHz poor propagation to the north F6DKW JN18CS 440 km : 53, to the south F6DRO JN03TJ 440 Km also : 59 ! With 23, 6 and 3 cm not a moment of respite, the WX was perfect. 73JP
