On November 3rd 2020, PJ2BR made several TEP QSO's on 2m SSB with Argentina. Around 00:00 UTC, the first QSO was made with LW2DY. Followed by LW2DAF, LU5BE and LU3DYK. Signals suffered from QSB and audio distortion. Grid squares FK52 <-> GF05, distance of approx 5270 Km, breaking PJ2BR's previous record of 4730 Km (SSB with D4VHF). Video of the QSO is available.
Last Night PJ2BR worked other 5 LUs station in 144300 SSB: LU7DW, LU5BE, LU2EPO (Longest distance QSO 5380Km), LU1DL and LW4DIR. Bert have a good signal and solid 55/6 during the opening
