Hi,
E77DX was really very loud here for many hours.
I called him several times without luck. We was peaking sometimes really 599
but no way that he catch my call.
Here we are in a boooring ARRL10 so last night decided to QSY 160 and really
was amazing!...
CX3AL operating from my station did a great job with a nice pile up for his
first 160 mts activity.
Could work a few new ones and TF4M was 579 for a long time.
73,
Jorge
CX6VM

Worked E77DX this evening from Kansas. Probably not a big deal to the
seasoned DXers on
this list - but it impressed me.
I was using a 100 foot piece of wire tossed up over the garage and strung
along side our home for
the 10M contest. 10M got slow and I listened some on the Top Band. Heard an
absolutely amazing
signal from E77DX on 1.819 after midnight. He was coming strong in over S-9
local noise. Adjusted
the tuner to load the wire on 160M and gave him a few calls with 100w. At
0619 UTC in the log. Heard him
work numerous 6s and 7s.
Some cluster spots:
VE3FDT 1819.1 E77DX CQ, unbelievable signal! 0623

Maybe I should get a real antenna going for 160M...
