Title: After a long time, I heard Chuck!
Post by: pe1mph on November 06, 2021, 02:05:45 PM
Hello AM Lovers,
This afternoon I were busy in my studio, the old Yeasu FT 901 on (on the background).
On this freq.: 21420 khz, but audio not to loud....
It must be around 15:30 hours (wintertime) suddenly I heard a man speaking.
His voice comming out speaker from the Allbander.
I were surpriced, because I recognized his voice... I were thinking...
Hi, hi... he did mentioned clearly his call: K1KW
Some years back Chuck and I had a talk on 15 and Ten in AM, I remember.
I take a look to the S-meter: 3 to 8!
Totaly no problem to hear him, but I wait...

Later I call him, but I guess.... everyone in Europe did call: Buck!
Pity for me, but maybe a next time/day I have more: Luck!

Just I sent an email to Chuck to tell him how good I heard him. ;D
