Nothing great here. Just playing off and on and only have 15 in the
log, and 11 grids, mostly within 100 miles. However on 6 meters I was
able to work a couple of stations in CT, and NP4A in PR.
My 2 meter antenna is only 12 feet high and 10 feet from the house. On
2 meter SSB, I've worked CT, MD, NJ, and WV.
It's still fun, but I wish I would get a nice opening.
