I remember that very well! K7SS called me in the middle of NAQP and told
me what was going on. We were listening to both sides relaying into the
West Coast. When propagation started to change, it moved up to New
England and we could no longer hear the Lithuanians. Then ON4UN got on as
the Euro link...we could hear him just fine! I was about to pull the plug
when I heard John say, "Doug, this one's important." Then they passed the
message of the transfer of government to the minister in Poland. Seems
that this wasn't entirely unexpected and one senior minister was kept out
of the country at all times just to be available. Yow! What traffic!
Even today it's exciting to recall. Good show ON4UN and K1DG and the
others at LY2WW and WR.
