Now that solar activity is finally declining and quieting
down, 30 Meters is really taking off! (While the higher DX
bands are getting worse, 30 is getting better!) </font><br>
<br>
Driving home from my sister's farm in Kalamazoo, MI I copied
more stations at one time on 30 meters from my mobile than I've
seen in years. This was copied at about 1400 Hrs (Local - US
EDT) on 05 May 1 from my mobile FT-891 and HamStick antenna on
Interstate-94 just east of Battle Creek, MI. Note the number of
APRS Messenger stations running APRS over MFSK16 and PSK63; i.e.
SSIDs of -63 and -16 .<br>
