[VHFcontesting] 222 Activity Night

[Donald Fox]

Worked 5 stations again from EM79 this week. Was hoping to make it 6.
I keep hearing about these "Chicago" folks that come around a bit later, but don't see the on the chat page, or hear them on/around .100.


K9MRI, WA3EOQ, AA9MY, K8TQK, and KC4AAW.

KC4AAW was a new grid, EM85, for me on 222. AJ6T is 250 miles south of me, yet we've only worked 1 time on a squeaker CW contact. SSB mode between Walt and I seems like a lost cause. This is puzzling, because I regularly work 300 miles on SSB. K9MRI seems to hear Walt more often than not, and Joe is another 100 miles north of me here. Must be an RF black hole between Walt and I.
