About the
Intercontinental net on
14,288 at 1800z
Hi Bill,
I have noticed
previously that
propagations from this
corner often are good to
US. So decided to try.
Jim,
W1QUO was the strongest,
but I copied several
others
as well:
W1QUO 59/55 W8AUV
44/54 AF1E 44/--
VE3BGG 56/--
W2LOP 58/59 W2RWA
53/-- KF5BD 43/--
Soon we might be able to
build intercontinental
net
also in the evening!
73's Pertti, EA7GSU
