[OKDXA] TO8FH - Mayotte - 24.918

[JIM PICKETT]

Thanks Jeff,
That was the first time I ever tried F/H and your note sure helps.  I saw you work him.  I'm only using 100 watts on a dipole at 40 feet since I can't turn my beam and haven't been able to for two years.

Ah, maybe someday.

73,
Jim - K5LAD
