Topband: Wednesday 160m DX Activity Night

[Wes Stewart]

Worked PJ5/SP2GCJ @0315 for a new one for me.  OA4TT would have been a new one 
too  (I'm a newby).  He was quite strong but the one time he replied to me he 
didn't have my complete call, missing the "s", and he gave up and went back to 
CQ very quickly (I thought).

HC2AO was ESP, at best.

It's interesting that I seem to hear better than I get out, even using the 
inverted-L on RX. 500W doesn't seem to cut it.

Not the best conditions, but also not the worst. Worked OA4TT about 0400; Jack was QSA4-5 copy between some nasty static crashes. That's what I get for not wanting to shovel snow -) .....
