[160m] First 160m Digital Contacts

[Brian Webb]

Good Morning:

Last night I had my first-ever digital contact on 160-meters.

I didn't sleep well and got up at 0400 PST this morning. As soon as I turned
on the radio, I heard a strong RTTY signal and made my second 160m digital
contact.

The digital QSO details are as follows:

DEC 17   0404-0426Z   PSK31   W7TVF   Pahrump, NV
DEC 17   1227-1239Z   RTTY    W6WRT   Palm Springs, CA

My QTH was Ventura County, CA and my TX PWR was 50-75W. Signals were strong
both ways for each QSO. The antenna was an improvised end-fed wire up 12
feet.

73,
