Comments:
No meters like 20 meters
Raging line noise, blank display on one TS-850, and the worst propagation I
have seen from 8P, but still had some fun moments. Thanks to K2RD for lending
me his MFJ noise elimination boxes. They worked surprisingly well, but took
away a lot of flexibility.
Had fun on Sunday. When running the US, a station came on and said â??There is
a Pakistan station on frequency.â?? Certainly this was due to a broken AP1A
spot. (I once wore an AP1A call sign badge at Dayton). Not to pass the
opportunity, I said â??Wow, I need Pakistan. Please standby for the Pakistan
station.â?? I could hear several station laughing and breaking VOX on
frequency. I chuckled about that for a few hours.
Thanks to everyone for the QSO's.
Great to see all the new callsigns on HF
