Title: Re: EU This Morning Post by: WA3VJB on November 06, 2011, 11:00:39 AM Yeah gotta recalibrate my head as to the time change and propagation.
10:30AM EST Sunday Just worked westbound to Colorado and N1FSX/0, Chris at 20+, 29.040Mc but this seems a little early for the shift to the left.

Whatever rocks your boat, I suppose! I was only taking a restroom break from my "nightly" sleep. I worked a few stations for about a half hour when I heard him there on AM. I called several times before he picked me up. Sorry Steve, I didnt' think to make the recording. Title: Re: EU This Morning Post by: Steve - K4HX on November 07, 2011, 10:58:46 PM Very cool!
