Congrats, Dennis. When I worked him I was using 100 W to a 6 meter dipole made from two Hamsticks, erected last year when I finally discovered how cool 6 meters is.

I’m parked on 50.125, still hearing new signals come up every few minutes. It’s almost like that scene in the movie “Contact” where Jodie Foster, reclining on her car’s hood in the shadow of the Very Large Array (Socorro, NM), first hears that alien signal.

Almost.

73,
