[ADXA] T88RH vs OH1NPW Long path on 12m

[Jay Bromley]

So most of you know my Miss Kathy callsign is WQ5T.  She was on 12m FT8
working T88RH for a new one on that band at 22:22 UTC.  Then I hear JTAlert
sound off with another new DXCC and noticed she had printed OH1NPW.  Now we
were pointed at 303 degrees for the T88 short path, so I got to wondering if
the OH1 was long path?  Sure enough, pointing the beam at 27 degrees short
path for Finland no print, but he was a very loud -02 S/N at 207 degrees
long path.  Kathy sent a -02 and got a +2 back for her trouble.  Still
pointed that way and the only EU station we are seeing was the OH1NPW!
22:43 UTC is the current time.    

 

The SFI is at 228 right now, boy what conditions on 12m!  73 de w5jay/jay..
