DR5A as recorded on 23cm at OK2KKW in May contest
Matej, OK1TEH, posted a MP3 snippet of our signal on 23cm SSB at OK2KKW in JO60 in May contest. Thanks for that nice impression of our signal over there!

Due to an error that went unnoticed until the end of the contest, we only recorded the first 3 hours. So i decided to cut out all QSOs > 500km during that first 3 hours.
Times are in GMT, and they are all SSB.
Enjoy!

We recorded our 70cm RX during July contest (2m did not work this time, sorry), and here are the QSOs > 750km as audio snippet. We could not record our own transmissions, so they are cut out from the recording, you are only hearing the other station, without the silence while we are transmitting.

The guys of OM5M recorded our 23cm-signal over a distance of 821km, very nice, thank you!
We recorded the 2m QSOs during March Contest, and these are the QSOs > 750km:
I4VOS/4, JN54PF, 792km SSB [220kb]
OK2KJT, JN99AJ, 844km SSB [370kb]
OM3KII, JN88UU, 836km SSB [226kb]

S57O, JN86DT, 836km CW not recorded!
OL9W, JN89UJ, 820km CW [1mb] not easy…
Well below the 750km limit, but very rare:
GU3TUX, IN89VR, 619km SSB [169kb]
If you are interested in how your signal sounded in JO30EM, just drop the webmaster a line, and i will try to extract our QSO from the recording. Unfortunately, we started the recording not before 1635 UTC, so all QSOs before that time are not recorded.
Thanks to Martin, OK2GM, we got a recording of our signal on 23cm at OK2KYCs receiver. Impressive!
Without further ado, everything above 800km (audio quality is much worse than in september, as we were recording off an TS850 instead the FT1000):

Finally i prepared the audio snippets of all the DX-QSOs > 800km we made during the September Contest. During the night, we started to have some gaps and skips in the recording, so at times especially our CW sounds very distorted or plain wrong. That is only in the recordings, and not due to our faulty keying :-). Enjoy!
GM4ZUK/p IO86RW 922km SSB, becoming a regular (371kb)
OM3CQF JN88RT 820km SSB (231kb)
G4LOH IO70JC 824km SSB, with some intentional QRMing, but he easily beats it (164kb)

EA2BFM/p IN83FE 1109km SSB, strong! (270kb)

If your QRB to us is below 800km, but you want to know how you sounded at JO30EM, just drop me a line, and i will extract our QSO from our recordings.
The boys of OM50KHE recorded our 904km-SSB-QSO with them. You can hear our (rather weak) signal on their website.
