Way to go Bob!
Wish I could be so lucky...hi..I got up at 6AM EST and already there was
a howling mass of signals about 1-2 KHz above him. I joined the melange,
but could only raise W4?? a couple of times. The timimg was right, but no
cigar. maybe tomorrow, or maybe the next expedition. Anyway it's fun to
try. Happy ThanksGiving.
73, Mick W4YV
