[ADXA] A52P 10 Meter FT8 @1315z

[Jon W. Reynolds]

Weirdest thing, I got up this morning, and I heard Joel listening, so I thought I'd follow suit, then all the sudden, he worked me and I looked down and my callsign had changed...A5 something...anyway!

Okay, I don't get up that early, must be legit. Congratulations on the new band! It feels tough for me to find and work new dx at my lowly 147ish and that's mixed overall, I can't yet imagine worrying about working dx on a certain (or uncertain) band just for a band counter! I'm happy to get what I get when I get it!
Ps Don't lower the standards for ease of access or it doesn't become as standard!

Keep up the great work everyone!

I had the top and lower antenna on LP and the middle antenna on SP. Earl is about 75 miles south of me and it apparently made a big difference this morning. I never heard A5 at all SP even though Earl did and work them SP. When I worked them they were around -1 to +2 LP but just a faint smidge with no decode SP.

It took a bit for the prop to come in here, LP, as I kept seeing guys to the south and some SA working them. It finally came in and I was able to knock them off for a new one of 10 meters!
