Re: DX reports (FM and repeaters)
Looking at the Hepburn charts you may hear the Mt Barker repeater tomorrow morning.( the one I listen to whilst down south)
I will keep an ear out before the WIA news.

Big Al said he heard you on 147.150 (this morning I think) which seems to be the Manjimup repeater.

Keyed several southern repeaters this evening. Most around S4. Yes, I need too write down callsigns, lol.
Spoke to VK6NA, Nick via VK6RBY and VK6ROO. He logged VK6ROO and VK6RGN at over S9
Just keyed: VK6RBY, VK6RMW, VK6RFM, VK6RCT. All around S3 at 2225 local.

Re: DX reports (FM and repeaters)
That's the way it goes some times. I had a contact with Gordon on the Northampton repeater last season. One second it was good, next it was completely dead and didn't return.
The local repeaters were going off every few seconds last night. Makes it hard to scan

Yes, guilty as chargedVK6ZMS wrote:The phantom repeater kerchunkers always come out when a duct is running.
Was a good night though.
Briefly spoke to Martin VK6ZMS via VK6RFM earlier on. Later, for at least an hour up to midnight, Paul VK6WZ via VK6RCT Maarten VK6MP then continued to chat to Paul for a while.
