Over the past week or so, I have been casually putting together an operator’s guide to JT65-HF communications. The beauty of this mode is that with only a few watts and a simple (as in random wire) antenna, one can make distant contacts which are otherwise impossible.
The guide is designed for use at the OVMRC club station, however, the same principles will apply to any operator’s station. For example, the core requirements are the same as for PSK-31 so if you are able to use that mode, JT65-HF will be just an operating extension.
Without any further adieu, the guide can be accessed by clicking on the following link: JT65_Operator_Guide.pdf
Hopefully, the material which I present is useful to someone out there – I believe that JT65 is a great mode and should be explored by more hams. Hopefully this makes it more accessible.
Thanks for the helpful guide. 73, Howard
