[OKDXA] EU DX this AM

[John Geiger]

Yes we had some good E skip on 2m this weekend. It was open 6 hours on Friday morning and afternoon also, but I was at work for that one.  Picked up 4 new grids on 2m Friday night, not easy to do when you are already at 150 grids on 2m.  Missed the CT station, that would have been state number 40 on 2m.

The Es returned to 2m last night but this time to the NW.  Worked 2 Idaho stations, 1 in a new grid.  So I got 5 new grids on 2m and 2 new 6m counties, not a bad weekend VHF wise.
