[OKDXA] CQ160

[John Geiger]

I heard 2 RI stations on.  W1OP was loud on Friday night but wasn't hearing me.  On Sat heard another,weaker one, can't remember his call.  Heard more XEs than usual.  Band was quiet both evenings. Not sure if it was atmospheric conditions or because much of Lawton is still without power, reducing the electrical crud you get here.  Heard France, England, Chile also, but now way they were hearing me pipsqueak signal.  Still, it was fun when it lasted.
