CQWW SSB 2023 - M7ELC & M0YKS Contest Team 😁😎

[@BernhardSchwarz-xs8kp]

This young lady has what it takes. Not only the enthusiasm of an old timer but the natural talent and quick thinking of a talented experienced SSB contestant. Keep that call sign in mind. We will hear more about here in months and years to come.

[@M0YKSHamRadio]

Thank you Bernhard, She is currently growing up too fast H.I. hopefully she will be making more RF and plenty of QSO soon. best 73. tnx

Thanks Jacques. It's her 3rd CQWW, almost a veteran lol

[@PP5KW]

Hi Simon and Elsie. Thank you for the contact. Many stations called at the same time because the propagation was very good on 10m, but his voice caught the attention of the others. Your persistence was fundamental, congratulations. 73 from Romulo PP5KW.

[@M0YKSHamRadio]

hi Romulo, thank you for your comments and QSO, very good signal from Brazil. 👏. Keep up the good work and we hope to hear you again soon dear friend. 73 obrigado good luck with your score.

[@matts-occvids24]

Hi Simon. I'm very impressed with Elsie's skills, she coming on really well and some great DX with her 10 watts. I guess it must be her dads teaching 😄. Thanks for another great Vlog.

how quick they grow up, its like yesterday in these videos when Elsie was a little child. M7ELC operates the radio alot more coordinated and sharper than before.

Hi Simon and Elsie. Great to see you team up in the contest. I totally forgot about it this year. I had fun in the contest last year. Next year I will have to do it. Hope you all had a great weekend. It went way too fast. Hope you have a good week. Thank you for posting the video. When I watched it, I felt like I was there with you guys in the UK. Talk with you soon. 73 from your "family" across the pond.

Thank you very much. Hope you had a good time catching QSOS. It was decent conditions this time. Great fun having a go. Well done hope we catch you on the bands soon.

[@m7trsradio]

@@M0YKSHamRadio Hi yeah it was. Sorry I missed you on the air. I made a whopping 30 contacts lol. I did a paper log, so now need to find away to get ready to submit. As it's so little I might not, it's not like we are talking a 1000. 😂🎃 73

Simon,heard you booming on 20m .found out both my antennas suck for 10m 🙈🙈

[@M0YKSHamRadio]

Nice one on hearing me. Sorry you need too change antennas. Try a delta loop they are fairly small. 73 buddy

[@andy2E0JIU]

@@M0YKSHamRadio I will do mate soon as weather holds up.what a week to take off work lol

[@MrGrerm]

great stuff and well done..but there will be doubters, trust me!! ..plenty of screen shots of meters on RX,..but on TX none!!...200w radio 10w license,,just a thought....

[@M0YKSHamRadio]

thanks bud. we dont mind the negative stuff thats life lol. Tons of patience, a decent antenna and location, some good audio and high pitched YL voice cuts through the higher HF bands very well. But more important a lot of fun spending the weekend shouting together, daughter and dad DX. Happy times, hopefully a few more young operators will join the hobby after seeing Elsie in action. It was great fun for us both and hopefully she will do it all again next year. Thanks for watching bud, best 73.

[@PeddyrCubberley]

After the 5/9 (radio 5, signal 9), what does the 14 mean please?

[@M0YKSHamRadio]

Hi there. The world is divided into 40 zones we are operating from Zone 14. We exchange signal reports and include our Zone. The objective is to reach as many zones as possible. This year we got 23 out of 40. Thanks for watching

[@PeddyrCubberley]

@@M0YKSHamRadio Many thanks, that makes sense to me now. 👍🏼

OK bands here are changing with fair conditions only. Guess I waited to late. Take care and have fun.

Still working on 20m hearing S/N America but dying down a bit now. Great fun though thanks for the comment hope you made some qsos 73 !

[@johnratcliffe6438]

I found 10m much harder work today. More QRN on the band for sure.

[@M0YKSHamRadio]

It seemed a bit better for the rare DX on Saturday. Still plenty on day two but glad I nailed most DX early 😁 73 tnx

[@PU2WNE]

Infelizmente aqui no Brasil, é um hobby muito caro, muitos dos equipamentos que voceis ai da europa tem ,por um preco justo, aqui equipamentos desse custa o preço de um carro de alto valor , infelizmente a realidade do meu pais , dificuldade para equipamentos e acessorios, com muita dificuldade comprei um YAESU FT 101 EX ano 1975, um radio

[@M0YKSHamRadio]

Very interesting to hear. I have always heard good signal from Brazil since I was a small child back in 1980s with CB radio. Hope to hear you on the HAM Radio Band's. I bought the FTDX101mp and welded my old Van. The radio are expensive here as well 😁👍
