[OKDXA] Midway signal strength

[John Geiger]

Hi Bob,

Got them around 7:45am local.  Good think we are on fall break this Thursday and Friday.  The 10 meter QSO I referred to was with W1VX/KH4 from 2001.  I haven't heard them much above the noise on 20m yet but they were in pretty good this afternoon on 17m but no QSO with them on that band yet.
