Aurora Propagation on 6 Meters

Examples of aurora propagation on 6 meters during the solar storm on May 10, 2024. You hear how the voice signals have a raspy sound. One of the stations you hear is only about 20 miles from me. As I turn the beam from due north, where the signal is bouncing off the aurora, to where I point the beam in his direction from me you can hear the difference.

I used to work 6 meters extensively during the 70’s. I had a Swan 250 with a 4 element beam. When sporadic E was low, you could always count on an Aurora for contacts. Even during daylight hours. Thanks for sharing this video. 73’s

Thanks for sharing. I did hear this type of signal distortion here in the UK on the 10th. And yes, bands were dead. But the phone signals came in just like this and I figured it was due to the Aurora conditions but didn’t know why. Thanks for sharing and now wish I would have recorded the QSO. Probably won’t happen again. 72 XYL

Woooowie!! That’s from the Aurora!? I did a band scan on my ATS 120 and it was nuts 🥜!

Great video , I worked 11 stations all around uk inc Ireland and wales , was definitely a challenge , first time I have seen such propagation on 6m , cheers de 2e0nbk

What a cool demonstration! As a new amateur radio operator I learned something from this video. And yes, from what I understand the HF bands did get slaughtered by the solar storm. But what I noticed was that the 440 MHz band became much better than normal!

Thanks Keith many new amateurs will never know real radio!

It's all real radio. Way to be a sad ham. It's people like you that give the hobby a bad name.

I hadn't heard of this type of signal propagation. The voice really does sound pequliar.

You appear to have found a way to speak directly to Satan.

I’ve done this kind of propagation but n the 49 MHz band. Mind you that 49 MHz is right below the 6 meter band so it is going to behave like the 6 meter band. The call I used was 49-KC9CPX to represent that I was working 49 MHz dx lol. The more storms, the more dx I can do there lol.. the radio I used is a maxon SA49 headset type communicator a lol. And I was extremely qrp too because those walkie don’t use but only 100 MW of power at their highest. Now that’s dx. And that was some years back too so not just recently.
