Tropo on 2m – QSO CT9/OM3RG

Incredible duct this sunday in december.

QSO made between OV3T – JO46CM and CT9/OM3RG IM12JU – 3275km TROPO

Steve only had 100w, and heard me in each period. Took a while.
I heard Steve only the few times needed to make the QSO with -21dB and -22dB.
Allmost a straight line in water, touching JO01/IO91/IN88/IN53 grid squares made it possible.
It would have been impossible if more land had to be crossed.

The OZ national tropo record would be in play here, last one set in 1985 by OZ1EYE 2536km.

    This is truly extraordinary and would be unthinkable without FT8 > WSJT.

    Hej Thomas,
    Jeg ønsker dig tillykke med denne 2m forbindelse – fantastisk.
    Her i OE var der ingen chance for at komme ind i kanalen – jeg var for langt mod øst…

    Angående dit billede i overskriften – Silkeborg og Hjejlen er meget gode betegnelser for mig – jeg har kendt dem begge siden 50’erne – min mor er født i Silkeborg 🙂

    Glædelig jul og alt godt for 2024.
