Had fairly good copy of SAQ here in South Carolina along the coast.
They  started sending VVV de SAQ SAQ SAQ about a half
hour early around 2330UTC.  The static was a little worse than I had hoped 
for
here in SE USA. Copy was  RST 359 - I could get most letters but every
once in a while the static would  take out a letter or two.

Setup here was an R75 with both 250Hz filters  mobile in the car along with 
a Ratzlaff active whip
plus an AMRAD  clone VLF/LF converter running on batteries 
with a passive 500KHz lowpass filter.

I hope they will try this  again for us next year!
