50MHz FT8 Operation - Pile-up (2024/October/30)
Since repairing the broken 50 MHz antenna on October 13, I have communicated with 643 stations on FT8 and 66 stations on SSB.
The farthest I flew was KL7HBK in Alaska, which surprised me.
Mostly Japan, Korea, China and Indonesia as the antenna is pointed at Japan with a fixed beam.
Australia and Russia have one station each.
The antenna is a fixed beam for Japan, so Europe and other countries cannot be heard.

Since repairing the 50 MHz antenna that broke on October 13th,
I've made 643 contacts on FT8 and 66 contacts on SSB.
The farthest contact was with KL7HBK in Alaska, which was a big surprise.
Since the antenna is a fixed beam pointing towards Japan, the
Most of the contacts are with Japan, South Korea, China, and Indonesia.
I have one contact each with Australia and Russia.
Because the antenna is fixed towards Japan, I cannot hear stations from Europe and other regions.

Video of the 50 MHz operation.
On this day alone, we were able to communicate with 172 stations.
5:44 UTC (13:44) to 8:30 UTC (16:30) and
11:54 UTC (19:54) to 14:31 UTC (22:31). Time in parentheses is Philippine time.
I was so tired at the end I wished they would fade away quickly.
This is a video of me operating on 50 MHz. On this day alone, I was able to make 172 contacts.
I operated in two sessions: from 5:44 UTC (13:44 local time) to 8:30 UTC (16:30 local time), from 5:44 UTC (13:44 local time) to 8:30 UTC
and from 11:54 UTC (19:54 local time) to 14:31 UTC (22:31 local time).
The times in parentheses are in Philippine time.
By the end, I was so tired that I started hoping the signals would fade out quickly!
