A couple of things a remarkable about the QSO - having checked my grey
line
chart it seems I made a G-VP9 qso well before his sunset ( and in
August). I had
also been working on my new inv-L for the coming season yesterday
afternoon and
I made this QSO on the remaining vertical length of wire from the old
Inv-L.
I'd love to think that this is one of my all time best Topband QSO's
but......I'm not sure. Did you work VP9RI, do you have any QSL info,
please drop
me a line. So back to the new inv-L, if it stops raining and bring on
the next
160m season? - Topband DXCC in 2009 perhaps !

In 2002 I worked an Italian station (USA NJ to ITALY) on 1832 around
2130Z - more than 2 hours before sunset here. He was very loud but
fluttery and sunk into the noise 15 minutes later. I turned on the rig
and it hit the 160 band by accident where it was tuned to this
frequency to find the station calling CQ. And I worked him with 100W
here with a modest inverted L.
