Okay, Jim, here ya go:
For KG5U, 100 w in:
160: 97
80: 98
40: 95
30: 95
20: 95
17: 94
15: 94
12: 93
10: 92
I'll give you an update periodically to add to my records you are going to
keep for me.
Sure appreciate that, Jim.
Ya know, there's always the chance that, in spite of having to say something
like "Awe S%&* N4KG beat me out to the JY" when he does beat you out in the
pileup, it could end up that the JY copies your call correctly, but blows
N4KG's because your sigs were so closely matched.
:-)
73,
dale, kg5u
