Hi all,
I've made recently my first few EME CW QSOs on 70cm, but I'm still not sure what are the appropriate EME CW messages. I found a lot of examples on the internet, all referring to a 2.5 min sequence, but it seems at least on 70cm, everyone is using 1 min sequence nowadays.
What would be the most used CW messages / timing for 1 min sequence? How to split the minute between calls and report? Are the calls needed when sending RO, RRR, 73?
Anyone would be so kind to help please? I'd like to see some 1m sequence CW EME QSO message examples, for skeds and random. Please include also examples with RST reports, beside the O / RO.
In order to make it easier, here is how I suppose it could be:
TX1 DL9KR YO2NAA DL9KR YO2NAA..... DL9KR YO2NAA K K (for the full 1 min)
TX2 (if I heard both calls) DL9KR YO2NAA DL9KR YO2NAA O O O ...O O O K K or DL9KR YO2NAA DL9KR YO2NAA 559 ... 559 K K
DL9KR YO2NAA DL9KR YO2NAA are taking about 21s at 17 wpm, the remaining 39s are O O …O or 559 ... 559
TX3 (when report was heard) RO RO ...RO K K for the full period Should I start with the calls like on TX2?
TX4 (when RO was heard) R R R ... R R R R K K for the full period Should I start with the calls like on TX2?
TX5 - optional (when RRR was heard) 73 73 .. 73 for full period or R R R .. R R 73 73 .. 73 ?
If I have received O O O but I can hear it very good, so I should send 559, how should I proceed? Should I send RO or 559? How do I confirm I have received the O O O ?
If I have received for example 339, but I hear very weak, should I send RO ?
Is the M report used anymore in 70cm?
