We worked back in 2018 in the UKEI contest, but I'm not a contester. I saw your software and decided to take a look, but nowhere do you mention the O.S. it's intended for, so I was expecting something cross platform. Nope! I found a .exe. No use to me I only have Linux here. I'm surprised that any amateurs still use Windows! May be worth adding the O.S. requirements to the site. I look forward to speaking again soon, 73 Barry (G4MKT) Admin Reply by: Ernst Hi Barry, well, I suppose that most of the amateurs use windows os. I have a Linux installation here on the side, running in a VM. Since most of the software I use for amateur radio, runs only on windows (pa remote control, rotator control, logging software, sdr console,...), I decided to go not cross-platform with my small little tools. But maybe in the future, who knows 😉 Best 73s Ernst  wrote on 2. September 2020 at 22:45 Hi Ernst, Thank you for the brief QSO on 20m. The band conditions were fairly poor and although your signal was only 51, it was rock solid with great audio. I was running a 10 watts from my TS 850s and an inverted V dipole at 5.5m above ground. Nice to meet you and hope to speak to you again. James MM6WER Scotland.  wrote on 30. June 2020 at 21:21 Hi Ernst nice to speak to you earlier;on 10 meters. you were booming into Wales 5/9 plus ++ your station doing a fb job"! best wishes to you and your family' de mw0cnd Martin  wrote on 26. June 2020 at 9:37 Thank you for the nice contact earlier this week on 40 M SSB. I was playing with a Xiegu X5105, 5 watt transceiver that for the fun of it, I tuned up on a Diamond 20 meter mobile monobander (!) LOL on top of my wife's car, a VW Polo, basically zero counterpoise. Nonetheless, was pure play, I don't recommend using ATU on 20 meter vertical mobile on 40 🙂 - I'm now tuning the antenna we 3 tuned radials for 20 and looking to do SOTA, or more /P. - Can you tell me who made your QSL cards, i'm looking to make some.thanks and 73 - Carl HB9FGN Admin Reply by: Ernst Hi Carl! vy gd signal, your vertical does a fantastic job! My QSL-cards are homebrew 😉 73 de Ernst OE3IDE  wrote on 9. June 2020 at 11:48 Thanks for the nice qso, I using only 5 Watt and a vertical dipol antenne. Frank ON7MF BELGIUM  wrote on 1. June 2020 at 12:32 Hi Ernst, Gute webpage...schöner design 😉 Danke dir immer gerne wieder wegen das gutes audio die du mir bringst im kopfhöhrer. So wie es sein soll.....servus Sascha Admin Reply by: Ernst Danke Dir Sascha! Ebenfalls immer perfektes Audio 🙂 Bis zum nächsten Mal. 73 de Ernst  wrote on 17. May 2020 at 15:02 Congratulations on you audio quality today. We had a quick QSO today. I was QRP 5W on my Yaesu FTDX101MP. Using a Hi End fed longwire antenna. I can say that you audio quality is probably the best I have ever heard on SSB. I do hope to get a nice sounding audio soon. I passed my Foundation licence on 1st March 2020, so I am still very new to Ham Radio. I have only owned my Yaesu for about a week and am using a Yaesu MD-100 desk microphone. Thank you for the QSO and 73. Admin Reply by: Ernst Hello Alex, thank you very much for the comments about my audio. I put a lot of effort in it 😉 It was very busy today on 14.205... I always trying to listen portable and qrp-stations.. but you know it is often not possible, because so many people calling. Hope to hear soon from you! 73s Ernst  wrote on 3. May 2020 at 22:40 Merci pour un très bon contact à bientot sur la HF 73  wrote on 2. May 2020 at 2:16 Excellent conditions at frequencies of 20 m. although not in the entire DX band. It highlights its good modulation and enhancement of your voice, on a noise signal of 5 out of 7, with an effective transmission of 5/9 + 10 up to my qth. I personally get a lot of noise due to my self-built 1: 9 multi-band fishing pole vertical antenna. Nice to meet you on radio waves. Receive a cordial greeting from your radio friend Jose, EA7JIR. 73. Be safe, stay home!  wrote on 21.

Admin Reply by: Ernst Hallo Klaus, vielen Dank für die Komplimente! Wir hatten 2018 ein QSO auf 80m, würd mich freuen wenn aus auch auf 20 oder 40 klappen würde. 73 de Ernst  wrote on 9.
