New band slots worked

Wow! Super conds on 80 m yesterday. Worked both YJ0GC and VK9XG within 15 minutes on 80 m. And this morning I had VK9XG confirmed in LoTW ( ! ) and YJ0GC I was in his log. And a few hours earlier I worked 8Q7YC on 30 m. But it was super fun to Catch both Vanuatu and Christmas Islands on 80  m.
So next goal is to see if it is possible to do the same on 160 m. I Think VK9 will be the easy one and a big challenge to get YJ0.

Here are the Vertical Antenna used for transmitting on 80 m. RX antenna is K9AY. But it is hard to see the vertical. It is 24 m (78') high and a variable capacitor of around 800 pf is in series with the feed. Picture was taken in March this year. And yes, it is snow on the ground.

Wx here in this part of Sweden is getting normal. Temp at the moment is -2,5 C ( 27 F ) and clear sky. Winter is around the corner!!
