11/19/2004 | K7HP What a letdown -had almost 8 hours left to find DE and VI - W3PP called me! so only needed VI and not a sniff (I use NO spotting stuff at all-so dunno if they were around by Sunday afternoon - but the KP3 was sitting CQing at S9+20 for 3 hours on 20 so there should have been prop to VI)- My excuse is I missed VI Sunday AM , my trusty TR7 after 25 years decided to want to go to 11000 khz no matter what . So four hours later I got it going again but it was already noon Sunday , bet thats when VI was available.

Same ole story , I guess wait til next year. What an aurora Sun PM , sounded like two meters back in the late fifties.

Oh well maybe I will dust off the D104 and try phone ss , but I don't copy phone too well. 73 Hank K7HP -- K7HP
