I shoulda turned on the radio!

I got them on 20 last night and could hear them working JAs and a few Ws on 15. I called for about 20 min but was tired and so gave up. I never heard the stations they were workin on either band. 

I have A1AH from 1993 on 12,  17, and 80, so not an ATNO for me, but lots of fun and a pretty well behaved pile from what I could hear of it. 

See you in the pile-ups!
