I meant K5HV.  Dislexia involving your call seems to be running rampant 
today!!!  Either way, the band was not good for understanding clearly, 
except between your QTH and mine.  First time I have heard anyone local so 
clearly and also heard both sides of the QSO.  Even my wife who was 
listening said "that’s Harvey".

Surprisingly Harvey, I happened to be listening to 14.278 when you started
calling W100AW about 3 pm or so.  Could hear you in Center Point on 20M
clear as a bell 5/9+20.  BTW, you got your exchange done with W100AW on the
3rd time he acknowledged your call.  The first time he screwed up and
acknowledged your call as W5VH.  The second time you must have missed him
entirely, and you got him the third time.  Yes, the bands are that bad
today - unlike yesterday when 10M and 20M were crystal clear here.  I am
blessed here in Center Point with being in a quiet location.  Even on a day
like today I am able to run the radio squelch wide open, with no
attenuation, no DSL processing whatever and still have the noise level
extremely low - not more than a gentle low hiss.  It could be a measure of
how little my antenna hears come to think of it though.

The South Gulf Division Director of ARRL is on the air at 1300 today.
Contact W1AW for points in the ARRL Centennial QSO Party.  I got through
about 1320 local.
