Couldn't believe hearing N5IA before dawn this morning and got him in the log. He was the furthest DX contact - by far - and to see why....Look him up on QRZ.com. His 160m antennas are ... Amazing !
I worked N5IA 22 minutes after my sunrise. He was very loud here. NP2X the loudest signal all the night, picking over S9 many times!! 73, Jorge CX6VM/CW5W -- 73, Jorge CX6VM/CW5W _________________ To

I managed 10 Q's with a MBDC from KD1JV. 100' of wire inside the condo with the end hanging from the 3rd floor window. A great time. 72, Bob KI0g _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http:/

Good for you Bob !!! That is really something ! I used the aluminum rain gutters as part of my counterpoisesystem which brought the SWR from 3:1 to 1:7. You never know unless you try ! 50 golden QR
