    144 MHz trans-Atlantic path opens up again

    On the 16th of June 2019, the Atlantic was spanned for the first time on 144 MHz when D41CV on Cape Verde Islands off the coast of Africa managed to work FG8OJ in Guadeloupe using the FT8 digital mode. Amazingly, that particular opening lasted for the best part of five days.

    We now learn that after a week's respite, the trans-Atlantic path has opened up again on 144 MHz.

    On Saturday the 29th of June, FG8OJ in Guadaloupe managed to work D4Z in Cape Verde for the first time on SSB.

    It looks as if the exceptional conditions may last all weekend and possibly into Monday.
