I CQed for you several times. Shrug. For what it is worth I was using a less directional antenna pointed at around 90 degrees. 73 jeff wk6i

When we worked you asked for QSY to 10. I QSY'd, listened, heard nothing,
then called CQ. N6WM answered so it was OK. (N6RO off back of antenna, but
LOS to Oakley.)
I think W7RN & K6LRN are about 32 miles apart.
W7RN antennas are most likely pointing 70° with a possible null in my direction
while I am pointing same 70° in general direction..
Due to possible nulls, I, for one, often miss some Bay Area stations.
