[R-390] Straight keys

Todd, same story here in Northern VA, did copy their press broadcast on
12MHz, QSA 3. Tried to work K6KPH on 40CW but the op was definitely NOT a
real KPH op, he could not handle the pile-up and went off the air about
0445Z. Anyone that ever stood watch on the merchant marine channels  could
handle the small pileup that they had last night. I spent many 12 hour
watches at NMR listening to 3 MM channels on 12 or 16MHz scanning between
them on a 4th using Collins 651S1's and running QRY lists up to 10 deep
during WX OBS windows. Happy New Year all - Tom Chirhart K4NCG ex-op NBA,
NMG, NMR, NMA...

Did anyone hear KPH on 426 or 500 KHz New Years Eve?  I couldn't hear a
thing
here on the East Coast.  426 KHz would be a bad choice as there are several
airport beacons already on or near that frequency as heard on the East Coast
that dominate that frequency at night. Happy New Year -  Todd Roberts
