Last night I got back from my music gig at about 0645Z. As I tuned the band
I thought I heard a loud signal calling DF2PY. I soon realized it was
DF2PY, pounding in at a solid 599 calling CQ with no takers! Wolf's great
ears
pulled my puny signal out of the noise and we had a brief QSO. Armed with a
bit of confidence, I called a slow CQ, worked a stateside station, and got a
call from G3PQA! John was a solid S-5, but peaked to S-7 before we ended the
QSO. First time ever that I was called by a European station on 160M!
I use an Omni Six at 80W to a 200' CF Zepp at about 28', so when I even
hear, much less work Europe, the band is good!
Paul, K5AF
