Larry, VP8GEO was on 1826.5 last night from about 0200 weak. We had a giant ice storm in HN. My VSWR was through the roof but he nonetheless heard me with about 500 Watts up and 300 back!. At 0300 he had a great 559 signal. I'd have been better off if I had waited but why wait on something like this comes on hi. GL and 73, Joe, W1JR
