Hi al,
What a day !!!!!!!!
I could get them on both 20 and 17m in 15min time...1 hour before my sunset.
Fighting against QSB on 17m (peaking S6, then nil etc), he was working by #, slowly, but with enough time between each number to reah a propagation peak. So I jumped into this peak, and got through !!!!!!
I the QSY'd to 20m where he was working # 7. I said to myself, "hey, let's wait my turn" ! And when number 8 started, just called a few times 10 KHz up his freq....I heard "AFC AFC your prefix ?"....I gave it twice, and got the answer "got it, F8AFC you are 59 too". I know, this is a shortn but precious report for this VERY rare one.
I've already made more contacts than my initial goal (1 QSO), and than my dreams (3 bands).
Hey, let's wait for 15m !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This would realistically the last band, 'cause I suppose 12 and 10m will remain close.
A great one, for sure !!!!!!
Ronan, F8AFC
PS : I'm really looking fwd to seeing the on-line log !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
