[ADXA] Hexbeam is up

[Scott Branyan]

Thanks, all.

And thank you for the spot, Lanny. 

I was working JT1BV on 15m but the QRM and QSB got us. He stayed with me for
8 tries. Third time this has happened! 

Good DX guys es 73,
Scott/W5AAJ

Scott:

Great chance to try it out on 10M SSB.

FO/SP5EAQ is on 28.485 up 5.  He gave me a 59 with my 100 watts and hex
beam! ATNO!

 

Just left.  I didn't pick up where he QSY'd too! 

 

73, Lanny  K1LEC
