I first tried my luck on 160 meter with JT65, I was called by PA0MJK, he gave me -14 dB report. He was -24 dB here. But when I answered, his signal was in the noise. I was reported by many stations on 80 m, only one on 160 meter by OH3GGQ 1462 km.

Unfortunately, no qso.

On 80 meter, no success with JT65 so I switched to PSK31. That was much better. Best DX was US3ICJ Vladimir from the Ukraine. 2325 km. Next qso was with F6CXI Claude from France. Last qso was with HA7JIN/P Jozef from Hungary. That's all for today.
