Cataby 9+ right now and Northam just creeping in. Should be a lot more action over the next 12 hours.

I'm hearing Bunbury callers on the Cataby repeater right now, very clear. Saddleback also very clear up here

Not a lot happening here, what antenna are you using?

X-50. I haven't heard anything since my post and I can't get into Cataby myself. Saddleback has dropped back quite a bit. Northham is coming in now.

Ditto on the X50 and I also heard Cataby (and was able to trigger it too) after reading your post earlier. Had to head out for a while though so didn't put a call out on it. I still haven't heard a peep out of Northam though, there must be a hill in the way

Odd, huh. You're half the distance than me to RAV. Everything's gone now for me. Might be interesting tonight and tomorrow morning

I'm getting a nasty scratchy "whheeeee" noise from Northam now, but it's doing my head in!

Heard it. Also the ident. Looking at the tropo site Martin posted, it's dead right now, but might improve in the wee hours

Bit of lift tonight. Cataby making it. Northam is booming in 9+

Still going this morning. Cataby sig 4, Saddleback 9+, Northam audible

Edit: I'm getting into Cataby with my hand-held on 2 watts from Swanbourne at 5.30PM. Signal's better than Roleystone donw here

I've heard Cataby and Northam (woohoo!) this afternoon.

I'm still at work (night training, dinner break) are you still listening? I put a couple of calls out a few minutes ago.

Nah, too hot in the shack - I'm down at the house. I tried a couple of calls too but couldn't trip either of them

Busselton full scale here

There were a couple of Bunbury stations coming in on 146.700 while I was on my way home earlier.
