ARLA/CLUSTER: D41CV/FG8OJ: HISTÓRICO CONTACTO TRANS-ATLÂNTICO EM 144 MHz (FT8) ENTRE CABO VERDE E GUADALOPE

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

Historic trans-Atlantic contact made on 144 MHz

A historic contact was made on Sunday the 16th June 2019 when the Atlantic
was spanned for the first time on 144 MHz.

D41CV on Cape Verde Islands off the coast of Africa managed to work FG8OJ
in Guadeloupe on 144.174 MHz using the FT8 digital mode.
The distance was an incredible 3,867 kms.

To put that into context, the distance from the west coast of Ireland to
Newfoundland is 3,000 kms.

Tropo prediction maps show a path right across the Atlantic and suggest
that even more incredble contacts may be possible.
