[OKDXA] Mt Athos

Sun Jul 25 21:11:42 EDT 2021

I’m pretty sure I have him on 20 m. I’d like 40 m as well, but he may be done for a while. I just did a reverse beacon network query and he hadn’t been heard since 0748 UTC 25 July (http://www.reversebeacon.net/dxsd1/dxsd1.php?f=0&c=Sv2rsg%2Fa&t=dx)

I use this a lot to know if a station I’m looking for is active/heard by anyone, anywhere. 

73 & CU in the Pileups,
