Now THAT was fun!

I used the Remote Ham Radio station in Eastport, Maine which has a four square
located as close to Europe as you can get from the USA. Elecraft K3,FSK,600
watt solid state amp, and Writelog all worked perfectly.  No discernible
latency, pops or drops via Internet from central California, about 2500 miles
away.  

Absolutely no man made noise, but the QRM from hundreds of stations packed like
sardines in the relatively narrow 80M RTTY segment put the K3 to the test. I was
able to copy way more European and Middle East stations than could copy me, even
though the Reverse Beacon Network often showed my signal strength as quite
strong. Guess the QRM in Europe is pretty nasty :(

Thanks to all of you who struggled to copy through that nasty QRM and get me in
the log.   And thanks to all for the QSOs.  I appreciate it. 

73,
Ron N6EE
