I would be happy for a QSO alone....just to know I could break the
seemingly Auroral barrier. My location in the Eastern Caribbean makes
the path at 5 degree chances between very very slim to none. I called
and called and called on 12/11/2009 when I finally could hear Chak but
then I had an equally impenetrable wall of NA stations.....one wall is
bad enough but try to get through two....well as Tony Soprano used to
say.........
Maybe LP with some skew is possible in a few years. I'm not whining but
just trying for that rare zone and new country...and its fun doing it.
