[2m] tropo opening on 2 meters

[KF7GTU (Jason Randolph)]

Well, got excited here in Bandon, Oregon and tried for many minutes, with no success. Thanks for the tip though. Some day I'll get an elusive CQ QSO on 2 meter. :)

Take care, thanks again...

From my studying I remember in openings like this there is activity found in the weak signal area of the band. I dial down there call hear  listen there you get the idea nothing. Is there some method or methods that you guys have used or tried that worked. If i see the reply in time I will give it a try if not I will print it out and put it in my binder. I keep one of the  things I learn here or something i want to try for a contest or just a good tip I want to remember, i do the same for my paper work for my ticket and CSCEs and the like.
