Brandon in Louisiana as received in Maryland on 40M the other night.
Rapid, shallow fading like this is when I really wish I had synchronous detection.
Still, plenty of margin to the signal, nice S/N ratio the whole transmission.

Buddly fired up Derb's FT101 to help mark Tim's birthday this week.
N3DRB would have been 49.
We were reflecting on having gotten together at Carol and Frank's, where a wee bit of Derb now lives ...
40 meters, evening late April 2012
Receiver: Hammarlund SP600

Ray, WD2AFJ at Phillipsburg NJ quite strong one late afternoon on 40m. I think this was Sunday 04/22/2012.

Joe, WA3WMI can often be found on 40M daytime.
This was late afternoon and 7290Kc was delightfully clear of international BC interference.

First couple times I worked Rob K5UJ I thought he was in 5-land. Uh, no. Near Chicago. A nice toss with good signals into Maryland in late April, 2012
Hello to Dennis KA3BVJ as well -- normally stronger than this. Guess the band was going long.

Thanks for the nice recordings!  Sorry but in Europe we never can hear AM from the USA on 7290 khz! This freq. is in use by BC stations... Greetings,
Henk, pe1mph |

Static chases me away from 80M come late Spring, except maybe late afternoon. By comparison, 40M sounds like the dead of winter ... |

Aircheck late afternoon. If you listen carefully you can hear some tape rolling in the background..  WA3VJB |

Hey thanks, Jeff !
We have come a long way from physically mailing tape recordings back and forth, and I still have some from TimTron and HUZ that were made 20+ years ago.
I don't sound nearly so much like an old buzzard as now, hmmmm....

Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.
