Title: Open to Texas Post by: Steve - K4HX on October 23, 2011, 06:22:07 PM I finished JSing my 10 meter dipole at around 4:30 PM local. Called a quick CQ on 29045 and WD5KJO came back. It's always nice to get immediate confirmation that your antenna is working. Jim and I had a nice QSO until about 5 PM local.
A little later I called CQ on 29020 and WA5VGO came back. He was booming in at 10-over-9 and sounding good on his Ranger. The attached recording tells the story. I just work East Kirbati (T32C) in the Pacific on slopbucket, so the band is opening up westward. Title: Re: Open to Texas Post by: KX5JT on October 23, 2011, 09:17:44 PM You mean Darrel, WA5VGO! I work Darrel and Jim on 75 and sometimes 40. 10 meters is so much fun though!

Hope to hear you on 10 meters soon. |
