Tom,
Sorry I missed you last night. I put about 80 in the log doing S and
P. No Europe, but I did work Haiti for a new 160 country. They were
using the special call 4V1TL. Also worked C6, XE, and PJ2. Also
heard HK and ZF, but they had a lot of stations calling and since I
really didn't need them, couldn't be bothered getting into the pile.
I hope to be on again tonight, and maybe wee will cross paths. Also a
VHF contest starting later this afternoon, so I will check it out and
see if there are any band openings on 6 or 2 meters.
73, Steve KW3A
