Geraldton is S2.

Cool stuff tonight. Heard Busselton on my HH as well, but not for long. Saddleback, Mt Willy clear as day, Cataby was coming stronger than Roleystone for a while. Trust my luck to be working late.

My antenna sucks. All I'm getting is Cataby

Busselton is still full scale, I spoke to a station in Joondalup via VK6RBN 30minutes ago who was using a j-pole in the roof !

@Gav. I think a length of wet spaghetti would be ok tonight. I got my Comet SB-15 today despite Austpost's best efforts to lose it. Installed it and the first thing I heard was RCT 9+, parked under 11kV lines with trees all round.

Busso is dropping a bit now, the weather radar shows rain over Mandurah

Haven't heard a peep from Busselton in Balla or Swanbourne (shrug)

Don't forget to keep an ear out for Mount Barker and Albany repeaters and the beacon in Barker.

Yerp, listening but not hearing anything here. I can't dial the beacon.. 5k steps :-\

Little bit of lift right now. Cataby, Northam and Saddleback just making it here.

Edit 21:30

Cataby 9+, Saddleback 5

Saddleback is full scale here, 6RBY is 5.

Might be something tonight/morning. I heard Cataby ident but it was pretty weak

Both Bunbury and Cataby are S9 here.

EDIT:
Cataby is now S5 Bunbury is still S9. I can just hear Saddleback.

Found RBY a few minutes ago S4. Cataby S6. Hopefully I'll have an extra 2m height on the X-50 over xmas

I only have the X30 but I am on Yokine hill and have the antenna on top of a two story villa.
