DEPLOYED ON 160M AT OH8X

With the aim of pushing the always challenging Northern envelope on low bands and verifying their own engineering skills, the group at Radio Arcala will hit 160M with a 39-ton (80.000 lbs) 3-element full-size monster duringthe week of January 19, culminating with the CQWW 160M Contest.

OH8X is to be manned by OH2IW and OH6KN, still in a limited capacity while valuable data will be gathered in this first assault. Their partners for measurement purposes will be the sister station CU2X operated by OH2BH/CU2KG and, in close proximity, by the associate stations OH0E operated by OH2MM, and OG2P by OH2PM.

You may catch all these stations during the coming week. Radio Arcala is cooperating with the University of Oulu in several areas of HF propagation study. They also welcome and acknowledge field reports at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
