VY1JA in the log, and don't even know what's 2 wavelengths ahead........ |
Bruce K0BJ and Mike K0FJ enjoyed a second SS on the road but had 'brain overwrite' problems trying to dupe from memory. |
On the drive Saturday morning we worked K6LL and fretted with Dave over prospects for disturbed SS geomag conditions. Well, after having swept out at Alan’s before midnight, we shouldn’t have been shocked to work ND WY AK PAC and YU x2 on the homeward trip, but.... WOW. Worked 103 Qs before reaching home.
K0BJ ran the mic and paper-logged, while K0FJ tuned and piloted. We attempted to “mental-dupe”, and must apologize to those we called twice. We gave out "A" precedence but realized after a while we were a multi entry. The callsign is the Trojan ARC’s, and used to belong to Chief Engineer Vern “Weatherman” Snider at KXXX.
Western KS is pretty flat so it was nice having our li’l Second SS to accompany us home. The Solomon River meanders along US 24’s route and hey, it actually has water in it here and there, which brings out the wildlife. We appreciate all the “drive safe” wishes we got from ops, as we had quick slowdowns to avoid a deer and a possum. Anybody notice the Doppler shift? 73
