Well, we gave it a try anyway, Steve. ... Perhaps 20 will be better
tomorrow.
I did hear N9GOC call me, but even he was up and down. Plus, he then
entered into a QSO with another Midwest station, so I decided to just let
them do their thing.
Will give the 40-meter round table a try next week, hopefully from the RV
camp site. I have an Alpha Delta DXCC out there now, up in the trees at
about 35 feet, and am anxious to see how it plays on 40 and 20 with the
TS480. Did some initial testing for an hour or so late last Saturday
evening, and it seemed to perform fairly well.
Will also be interesting to try out that antenna in next week-end's CQ WPX
CW contest.

Not so hot today on 7.192 for QRM. Low signals, high noise made for
few check-ins:

After I had shut it down, I heard Pat N9GOC call Tom, and it's possible some
other midwest stations could have joined them, but it really wasn't working
from Philly to the mid west.
