[SADXA] 40m DX SOLAR NOON DX CHASE - Worked LA1MFA 7003 @ 12:45pm [ SN+28 min]

[W7EXG (Bill)]

Hi Wes, 

Well Mike W7TUS said I am getting too old for QRP - meaning QRO as I take
it!! 

I just wanted A 40m DX SN contact - so its 3 ele and DRAKE L7 at my age!! Hi
HI  

Your right, QRO will help.

I did hear you calling LA1MFP after my QSO, and was hoping you would be
heard. Buy others were calling after my QSO as well. 

Jerry W6XI put a stake in the ground - 2 min from SN. 

I don't see it in the cards to better that time!! 

But for me, just achieving a SN +/- 1 Hr 40m DX contact is nice to have. 

We are in a rare event time period with Dec Solstice and LOW Ionization of E
layer and D layer. 

73's

I think this proves the same thing I've said on the Topband reflector, I
hear 
much better than I get out.    I may have to QRO.

freq however and that made it hard to keep up with you. Like they say in
those lists " good contact".

of course no sign of him LP.
