EME The Bug Bites!    G8BCG EME / GJ8BCG EME / EA8/G8BCG EME

In early 2005 faced with a dead band, I decided to take a listen for Lance W7GJ on 50MHz JT65A EME. I was surprised to find that he was good copy on my single 7ele with masthead preamp. I was even more surprised to find that I could work him with my "No 2" pa - just 250w (about 150w at the antenna). W7GJ click for large imageThat got me interested!

Before long Lance had convinced me that I should go on an EME DXpedition to GJ - details here

And then... EA8/G8BCG our holiday home on Lanzarote gets initial #1 with 100w to a 6M7JHV - full details here
