All,
Just want to give a “shout out” (thanks !) to both KW7Y and NR6O for their
courtesy this morning on 40 mtrs during the CQ WPX SSB test ! I (located in
St. Louis, MO) was in QSO with AE3T (Allentown, PA) and as the band changed
around 0745 CDST, both KW7Y and NR6O were calling CQ Contest within a half Khz
of our QSO. Most stations graciously agreed to QSY once I advised that the
frequency was in use. This is the way amateur radio was meant to be ! Thank
you to both Paul, KW7Y and Ken, NR6O, for their courtesy !
73 all and good luck in the contest !
Dave, K2DP
St. Louis, MO
