My best “heard” was 17001km on 380mW with my Comet H422 In V configuration.
This was into South East Australia with my Ultimate3s WSPR transmitter, but a nice spot.
I can get most places around the world: India, Canada, America, South Africa, etc, with 30w using JT65 and FT8 data modes. My JT65 is usually 15W.
When on phone I never go above 100W, which gets me around 3500 miles, as a rough guess. Not checked for some time what my best is., though conditions aren’t really that great at the moment.
10m got me heard in the Falkland Islands, recently, but I didn’t have an exchange. Mostly I am on 17m, 15m, 20m.
Kind regards,
Phil
