[Elecraft] Solar flares and 80M serendipity

[Leigh L. Klotz, Jr.]

The sun had set, and remnants of this week's solar flare were still in 
the air, so I was expecting near-dead band conditions.
I had just settled in to finish my K2 ATU, but decided to turn the rig 
on to see what the bands sounded like.  Right away on 80M I heard 
someone calling CQ, armchair copy.
I looked up the call on QRZ as it sounded vaguely familiar, and it was 
WA5TCZ, Darron, who was a novice buddy of my father (formerly WA5UBQ, 
now N5LK).
Darron had contacted me by email he saw my name on eHam, and we had 
tried for a sked a couple of times, but it just didn't work out from 
California to Louisiana.
Darron said just finished a K1-4...could it be Elecraft Mojo and 
Louisiana Gris-Gris?
