After setting a new world record in CQWW on Topband, yet another =
personnal best (CQWW 160)score, although second night was SLOOOOW with =
10-20 Qs per hour (no USA signals). But, persistance paid off just =
before my sunrise with a good opening to the USA, reaching as far as AZ =
(K7OX)and a surprise call from VP6BR. He was LOUD, and it's 18,000+ km =
between us! Yet another reason to call it Topband - you never know when =
and where The Band will open. Yes, XZ0A called me too, amongst some more =
good DX! Thanks to all for calling me and just to remind you that we are =
aproaching solar MAXIMUM, but looks nothing affects Topband, HI.
