I spoke to Dick briefly last evening and he said he had
about 20 cycles between main and generator power last evening. Each
time this happens his amplifier has to recycle ~4 minutes before
restarting. I noticed this on 80 a little after 10 UTC today so
keep this in mind if he disappears abruptly.
Dick peaked here about 10-15 minutes before my sunrise today.
He was 339 at best but at least there is some propagation. Maybe
conditions will improve before they leave around 16 October. GL to
all!
73, Bill W4ZV
