Today (17 Nov 2019), we were able to put AA6E through some preliminary on-air tests. On the 80 meter band, we ran tests that showed our 5 Watt signals were getting at least to Switzerland. See blog article.

The AA6E antennas include an 86-ft non-resonant dipole (center) and a vertical discone antenna (right).
We are using the Flex 6500 software-defined radio for HF contacts (1.8 - 30 MHz).
As we make a radio contact, we enter the details of the station and the operating conditions in our station log - log4om.
After an operating session, you can upload the local log information into the cloud-based Logbook of the World database.
