[ADXA] FN66 On The Air

[Sandy Hutson]

Good catch!!
  Luckily I have a lot of FN stuff but do need FN 67-69 (lucky to have 66) and need FN 56, 58 and 59..  Your 66 is close to being from extreme eastern land in Maine a few miles from Canadian land to the east.. Just put an “X” in the grid square and carry on, catching the rare ones and hopefully the E skip will hit us here.  
   Single hop E is about 1560 miles (up to 2500km) and real weak if single hop, but 1560 miles is about exactly where he was, explaining why FT8 worked well for you. Double hop would have been up to 2800 miles (3000 to 4500km) and likely way too long, since east Maine in that case is a bit too close for 2 hops to be involved. We go to Maine often and it is 1530 miles from here to Camden. 
  73!
