[HIham] 40m EME report

[Roland AH6RR]

Aloha Ron,

 I received the HAARP test on 6.792.5  transmit was S9+10db Lunar Bounce was 
S4-7 with flutter at times my noise was S3-5. I did not listen on the second 
test. It seems that the bounce signal was about a 3 to 4 sec delay and would 
be in with the transmit signal than following so if your GC was not on a 
faster recovery time you might have missed the lunar bounce with a strong 
transmit signal.
Antenna is a Double Bazooka @ 30ft and the Radio is a Kenwood TS-850S with 
Inrad filters. I did report  it to the prodject email.
