The signal strength(QSA) of VU3ZRI suddenly up & became extremely strong from 0928ist & also later too the two most consistent 59 level stations of Guwahati VU2DBM & VU2YPB became too strong in QSA level & I had to adjust my manual AGC..HI HI volume control as usual for VU2DBM...

An Amateur Radio News Item.....

Kolkata HF Net in the morning on 40mb A New HF Net for the weekend:

From last weekend(i.e.saturday-Sunday),I heard on 7145kHz lsb between 0730-0800ist approximately ,this net with VU3JXF as netcontroller.I heard as far as I could recall strong signal of VU3ZBG from Barasat( checking in & participants ..VU2DBE,VU2EHL(from different parts of Kolkata) ..Though I have noted down the details of reception,I am unable to trace it out..Hope I will be able to monitor it and will note down the details.

There may be slight error here & there in my reports etc...they are totally unintentional.

More reports/observations etc soon.
