Mike
Thanks for the recording.
The ground under the TX antenna is salt-water. No radials.

Thanks George for the Q
Here at 6am ET north of Toronto, you are booming in at S7 on my inverted
L. I didn't even need the beverage antenna.

I made a couple vy incomplete less than studio quality handheld

worked.
I think the K3TN QSO was the only complete end-to-end QSO I was able toget(by
accident). (I was just hoping to get a peak around my SR, whichnever came)
I think E51D was in for about an hour…pretty much the same strength asthis the entire
time. If not for the VFO readout, you’d almost think it was20m, the band was so quiet.
Just a lazy Inverted L in the woods here inFN66na
Thanks again. The RIB is very cool !

Mike,
More or less the same every SS and SR. Keep an eye on the clusters.
But last night I called CQ on 1810.5 from 0815 to 0930 with only onecaller,
despite multiple RBN reports. I QSY to 80 when no takers on 160.
GL and 73,
George

I hope I am not reading this message 1 day too late. Been swamped at work
and could not look 4 U before now.
Today was my birthday and I overslept for the 160m @ 0900z thing. Rats !~
Will you be on again at 0900Z on Sept 3rd/4th too George?
