Last night I had my earliest-ever fall-season contact with Europe. I found
S59A last night at 0538Z.
For many of you, this is no big deal. For me it is amazing. I run an Omni
Six at about 70W to a 195' center fed stealth dipole (#22 wire) that is only
28' above the ground! What is most remarkable is that the antenna is routed
among several tall trees with heavy foliage, and it is highly unusual to work
even the east coast, much less Europe.
It should be a great season! Kudos to Drago for great ears!
Paul, K5AF
