Wow ... just heard EME with minimal setup (Arrow Antenna and HT). Not

OK, I know nobody is going to believe this but....on my life...
I have been outside with an FT-817 connected via a very short piece of coax
to a Diamond A430S10R (small 10 element beam modified for handheld use) and
headphones and KP4AO was just audible on SSB.
Signals were inconsistent but solid enough to copy their callsign and CQ
calls around 19.00UTC and the odd information exchange thereafter.
Now they've switched to CW copy is a good 80%.
No signal strength showing on S-Meter of course but who cares.
I would never have believed it had I not heard it with my own ears.
Note: NO preamp was used.

Because the ash particles are statically loaded, they may interfere
with the radio traffic.
Has anyone experienced satellite comunications inteference so far?
Just out of curiosity...

I found there to be little or no difference when rotating the polarity.
I've also been asked what frequency I was listening on. The FT817 was in
USB mode and the displayed frequency was 432.04340MHz

Go get them Mark. Just copied them working S51WX on that mode also.
I will listen (look) for you to work them.

Hello
I have never uttered a controversial word on this bb.?This Arecibo event
presented us with a fantastic opportunity.? I truly applaud those who set
this event up and ran it.? However-the object is to make contacts, and as
many as possible in the allotted time.? The CW procedures were laborious,
73's, multiple calls, excessive id'ing.? They needed a top notch cw op.?
They used SSB, CW, then JT-65. I was waiting for them to try FM.? Again, ?I
am grateful for the chance to try to participate in this event.? I learned a
great deal in preparing and participating in the process.? Their signal?
peaked at 569 using a 910 with 50feet of LMR400 to a 40 el CP yagi set for
LHCP.? I am sure the JT-65 mode gave flea powered stations an opportunity.??
As I hit this send button they have 40 minutes left.? They might work a few
more. grumble!!
