Excellent sigs here from many western states on 160 last evening. Whoever also was on 1885 from the east coast was also making the trip here, but the locals in the west were ruling the channel so I couldn't copy any calls.
Had an hour long QSO with Robert, W0VMC in Wisconsin over a 600-mile path. Rock solid armchair both ways.
You were making it Q-5 copy here in Rushtown Bill. I tried to break in but I only had the peanut whistle (Viking I) tuned up. By the time I got the MK-214D down there, you and Bob were signing. No doubt, great band conditions.
