I got on last night (Sunday)about 10 minutes early and heard an
extremely strong carrier about 5 min before 22:00 very strong and
wondered who the "local station" was.
It was KW1I and Dale was really very very strong, the meter on the R-392
was pegged.
I though that condx would be excellent tonight. Several AM (with
carrier) stations appeared on the frequency and then the band began to
take a heavy fade in and out. W1AEA was loud one minute and then would
fade, Pete was in and out. K1JHM initially was loud. I finally heard
W2HX for several mins but rough copy. But the best accomplishment was
hearing the famous Jack Antonio WA7DIA from Warner Robins GA, Jack was
right at the beginning about S-2 - - - and I acknowledged Jack
and relayed to Dale. But the skip as usual was strange and the deep
fades really started. Overall a successful night because we were able
to hear Jack and Eugene but I had to check out at 15 after the hour for
family matters.
So Jack wins the best DX for the M and S net.
