0100: Home from the regular work day. 0115: Alpha and MP ready. The sun is still 10 minutes high in the western sky in extreme Southwest New Mexico. 0118: Heard first ID of 3B9C on 1.822. 0130: Sig strong enough to call. Can hear callsigns as he replies to the ones he hears. W5PJR has LOUD key clicks 2 kHz and more down, totally obscuring the 3B9C signal. 0132: No response to my calls on three tries. 0134: Answers N5KO? a couple of times. I repeat call sign, N5IA. 0135: In the log. 0138-0145: 3B9C works others in SW USA. Signal still getting stronger. 0145: All equipment turned off as the wife has steaks ready for the grill. 0200: Eating elk steak and baked potatoes with corn and green beans on the side. I like Top Band DXing!!!!!!!!!! As a veteran of the Top Band operations at XZ1N (1998) and XZ0A (2000) and knowing what it takes to make it happen from that part of the world, I congratulate the 160 Meter operators at 3B9C for doing it right. 73 de Milt, N5IA 73 de Milt, N5IA _______________________________________________ Topband mailing list Topband@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/topband |
