You all might be familiar with my old thread "any1 for a 15 meter CW QSO?". I am asking the same question but will open up the bands from 40-10m and not only 15. Remember I only have my Tech w/ code priviledges. So anyone for a CW QSO? Let me know.

15 sounds dead... you might wanna try 40.

I'll give it a shot. Rob is right, the band sounds dead. But I've been fooled before.

Nothing from YV1-land, either. 40m from here to there might work in a couple hours, though.

As a tool for listening, they are fine, as a place, they leave a bit to be desired.

I've got S7 noise on that frequency, but I'll give a listen. It's 2316Z, I should still be in the shack at 0000.

OK, I thought I heard something, but it was faint. 21.118 is a better choice for me, the noise level drops off there for me.

ok, I'm going to listen on .118, as .137 is just not usable for me.

How late do you stay up? I get on the air in the evenings after 02:00UTC most of the time and stay on the air for an hour or two usually.
Email me back at david.saylorsREMOVE@saylorsmachine.com
and let me know if you want a QSO....I would be up for some CW in the Novice spectrum again!! It had been a while for me. I got my General and still stayed in the novice part of 40 meters for about 3 or 4 months before I felt comforatable with moving to a different part of the band.
I am good for any band, so let me know where to meet u.
