EME - WSJT - JT65A
New to all this? What is
WSJT?

EME requires big antennas and high power -
WRONG!
The prime reason for my trip to Jersey (IOTA
EU-013) was to work Lance
W7GJ
(he begged me!) and then to work as many other 6m eme stations as possible.
My plan was to "keep it simple" - so I took
virtually my whole standard 50MHz portable setup -
including the truck.

With a 6M7JHV 32' long yagi fixed on the horizon
I could only work eme when the moon was less than about 15deg elevation so time
is at a premium. However, I was able to complete the following Initial Contacts:
