Comments:
DX condx not so great while condx to the west coast were decent. Almost every
EU QSO required multiple transmissions. Very rapid QSB....would copy a call
clearly, then took minutes to copy the grid square. 27 total DX QSOs,
including 3 KH6s and the zone 8 and 9 guys. Nice to put TF and OX in the log
though, two new ones for my admittedly anemic Topband DXCC total!
Took a sleep break at 0900 after going 20 minutes without a QSO. While hoping
for an extension of the nice westerly propagation when I returned, instead I
was greeted with a wall of QRN from an approaching storm system.....so much for
any more DX. I think I may have had a ZL call me but couldn't pull anything
through the noise.
Thanks for the QSOs, and thanks once again to John and Jean for letting drop by
and use the toys.
Happy New Year!
73, Mike K9NW
