Working DX on 10m Repeaters

As band conditions continue to improve, 10m is becoming more open and activity can be found further up the band away from the FT8 frequency. Go further still beyond the SSB frequencies and you'll find yourself up in the FM portion of the band at 29MHz, where FM repeaters from around the globe can be found with outputs between 29.620 - 29.690MHz (RH1 - RH8), with inputs 100KHz lower at 29.520 - 29.590MHz (RSGB band plan). This is a short video of some clips of me working the KQ2H repeater located in the Catsgill Mountains in New York State.

As with all repeaters, mobile stations should be given priority.

Good video Ian and I must remember to check 10m FM sometime. I've used SSB but I don't think that I've logged anything on FM. 73 Chris M0RSF
