G0UPL was now QRV on 30m QRSS, from Wednesday 25-Aug-04 at 2130 UT until 27-Oct-04.
The map (right) shows locations of receiving stations to date. Best DX is Steinar LA5VNA (1,159 km) but on 10MHz it is even harder to be as close as Erik ON4LP (238km) or Pierre ON5SL (274 km)! Click the map!

Hand-written notes indicate the memory locations assigned to each pixel, frequency shift, etc etc. The "G0UPL" QRSS10 part is very easy to program, by comparison. Programming is accomplished by setting the contents of each memory location on the toggle switches, pressing a button to program the location, then pressing another button to move to the next memory location.

This image is a scan of a manual page sent by Pierre ON5SL, who owns an actual vintage Feldhell machine. Thanks Pierre! Full-size image... |
