Boy, you've been out in the woods too long....maybe you should visit town once in a while and talk to some real folks instead of the wind.

HA!

My days in the woods have paid off. Just finished talking to W2APE_Dave and N4RQ-Terry on 1885 kHz. Was strapping at both locations with only 15 watts.

That said, I have about had it with wire, ropes, tree and such for a while!

City Slickers. Who needs 'em?

You were sounding good on 160 OM. As I said, every bit as loud as you were on 75 meters. Looking forward to more good chats on the topband.
