So far only 14 and 18 mhz. They were on 18 several hours
after our shot (22-2330Z) but I think the A and K indexes
are too high for 18.
At 1230Z they were readable on 14187 (maybe S3). They were ESP on 14024
later. I still hear W7's calling them on both modes.
I suspect it is hard to get many bands up unless they have a large platform
or maybe a second.
Thanks to John, W4NU my rotor cable got fixed and I got the beams up to
2/3's height. I am planning on cranking the
tower to 70 feet Tuesday afternoon. Boy have the trees grown! Looks like
some tree work soon.
Listing to 14024 or 14187 is like a circus. West coasters calling on the
wrong VFO, testers, some sort of blowing noise. Europeans complaining about
calling NA, and a few
police. On SSB you can recognize voices...shame, shame.
