Greetings Being a recent returnee after 40yrs away and with only 40 CW qsos logged I tend to stay up/down? On 80, although here in ZL-land the bottom end has plenty of space available. On the 14th after staying up latter than usual I 'just had to' tune the band before hitting the pit.
So it was that at 1100Z (Midnight LT) on 3503 I tune across K9DX calling CQ with no takers. I dive in not expecting a reply and was greeted with a 'ZL?' and after a few fills (not helped by my miss-sending the number in my call sign in my excitement...more fills) I received a 459 for 15watts into a 5 band vertical on a steel roof with 4 radials. This has to be the K2 Mojo I have heard so often on this reflector (plus gray line in Illinois). This is my first qso ever with the States. What a great band to do it on! Did a Happy Dance and went to bed contented. 73s, Nigel ZL2DF _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
