Not sure why airplane is an option considering the wavelength. It doesn't have much of a reflecting surface.
We barely could hear the handful of Europeans for a few minutes at their sunrise.

On one and only one QSO, I worked a "G" station whose callsign's last suffix letter was at least 20dB stronger than the rest of his call. I mentioned this to NR4M while discussing the contest with Steve at the Richmond Frostfest and he said he experienced the same on one occasion; he thought meteor and I was thinking airplane. Anyone else experience this on topband and if so, have a "scientific" explanation? 73, Dan -- N3ND _________________ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector _________________ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector
