Title: Late afternoon qso W2VW
Post by: pe1mph on February 07, 2015, 12:28:12 PM
Hello AM Lovers,

After a shopping afternoon with my wife..
And after dinner I did go to my studio.
I could not believe, did I hear it good...
I saw on the clock: +/- 17.45 hours in the 'late afternoon'!
Totaly supriced... I heard AM on Ten meters!
On 29000 I heard Dave W2VW talking.
The S-meter goes still a little UP, I saw again on the clock... hi, hi...
I wait like 'a gentleman' and after his qso I did say: QRZ and my call.
Dave heard me and asked me to go 10 khz down.

- 28.990 khz, W2VW, Dave, max. S8

We had a short by fine talk and I thank him for the qso.

After our talk I did listen if I could hear more on Ten.
Only on 29030 I heard a man talking, +/- 18.10 hour by me (evening!).
I am not sure but I guess it were K1GUP, max. S3?!
After his qso I tried to get in contact, but... a pity for me...
He did not returning for me...

Dave thanks for the short talk in AM,

Thats fine Dave!
Just +/- 19.00 hour by me I heard a station on 29000 calling cq in AM.
But his signal were to weak for me, to copy his name/call.

Now the conditions are over I think (19.10 by me).
So I go to my wife to watch tv this evening.
Often we waching Saturday-evenings 2 detectives on BRT Canvas.

I hope to hear you again on Ten in AM Dave! ;)


Greetings,

Henk, pe1mph

A cycle is never over.

CYCLE: "a set of events or actions that happen again and again in the same order"
