After a week of monitoring DDK9 I have observed the best times for Europe from Australia on 30m are around the following:
- Long Path: 0430-0730 UTC
- Short Path: 1600-1900 and 2200-2300 UTC
(North Europe SP stays open 1900-2200 UTC)
Paths are open beyond these times, but the above approximate times are where I think signals are strongest.
However, most of us Down Under are asleep during Short Path best times, so please look for us during the Long Path openings.
