Topband: DP1POL on topband

[Andree DL8LAS]

 Hello topbanders,

yesterday I buildt my first delta half delta loop .
I came home this night at 01:30 UTC and switch on the Icom
for listening on 160m with the new RX antenna.
A can't believe it....
DP1POL Felix  was calling CQ on 1,813....up 1 
by my first call I had the confirmed QSO RST 559 with him.
What a present for me and the brandnew RX antenna, 16000km and a new one on topband.
On my magneticloop AMA7 Felix was 339 with QSB,  but 559 clear on the DHDL,
nothing heard on my two pennants.
Sometimes he came with QRN on the vertical antenna.

setup:
IC756 pro II
ACOM 2000

TX Ant: shunt feed twr 22m high with optibeam OB12-6 as topload

Thanks so much FELIX for this nice QSO!!!!!
