Hi all radio friends, props have started down here in Oz. Apart from working Tasmania, Sth Australia, Tasmania & Queensland, I've made it into the OC. All these contacts have been from my 5w pep QRP homebase using my trusty old 30yo Station Master Mk1 1/2 w vertical.

Yesterday, I QSOd with an old friend of mine on Norfolk Island, IOTA Ref # OC-005, 130NI195 Peter.

To day I worked into the Nth Island of New Zealand IOTA Ref # OC-036, 41SP001 Tom.

I've been monitoring 27.335 usb, it is the inter island chat channel for 224 div, Kiribati Island Group, IOTA Ref # OC-017. For most of this afternoon, I've been hearing weak sigs from there, but alas they have been too low to work.

I'm hoping for better props fro OC soon, as it looks like our summer props are starting to appear.
