[ADXA] CY9C

[Dennis Schaefer]

Thanks, Don - just got 'em on 10 with a strong signal.  I don't normally
care about signal reports on FT8 but he gave me a +12, which is better than
I usually see.  I couldn't copy them earlier, but they were absolutely
booming in a few minutes ago.  I think their S/N was +15 here, which was
impressive considering that I have some noise.

Now that my noise is getting a little better and I tried some on 15 SSB.  I
heard Chuck, CJF, work them.  I didn't get through yet and he's calling for
JA's now.

73,
Dennis
