I was looking to check in as well. Using an AN/GRC-165 (RF301), with an 
R-390A
as backup receiver.

I heard Chris just barely above the noise level, but no copy on anyone 
else.
(In central GA)

So I didn't try to to check in.

Certainly not as good conditions as last week, when everyone was good copy.
