[SCCC] N6RV 2023 CQWW DX CW

[Michael Tope]

Hi Don,

I heard you on 160 meters. I have to sort through the files, but I 
should have a recording of it. It was right around or just past your 
sunrise. You were Q5 on my SAL-30 receive antenna. I dropped down a few 
kilohertz to let my KAT-500 autotuner adjust to the higher VSWR at the 
bottom of the band and when I came back to your QRG you were gone. It 
was quite a thrill just to hear you. I think AA6AA operates remotely 
through the W7RN superstation in Nevada.

73, Mike W4EF.................
