Did somebody say 10 meters????
John, W3JJH did inherit that golden opportunity should he choose to accept it....or unless a brave person wants to captain another station.
I have been listening to 10 meters every night for the past week, and there is the 'always open path' north/south doing well to the southern states and carribean, as well as E-skip (?) to the west coast and even a loud KH6.
John, you will have 2 elements on 15 meters and 3 on 10, should yo choose to use them.
73!
