[NLRS] Moonbouce (almost) on a wet string

[Richard Clem]

I've done EME with a dipole.  Well, actually I was just receiving and HAARP
was doing the heavy lifting.  This was on 80 meters, and here's a writeup of
another test about the same time on 40:

My clock wasn't accurate enough to know which one was the echo, but I was able
to hear both the terrestrial signal, and then the echo from the moon.

Thanks for the link.  With so many big guns running EME, I guess I don't have
an excuse not to try.

Apparently a club from Essex in G-Land has completed the world's first EME
contact using only a dipole.
