Yes it was fun here in Texas on 50.290 PSK31. Had keyboard qso's with
In, Il, Wi, Nv and Az.  Signals were very good, several commented it was
there first PSK six meter contact and two were operating verticals and
two indoor antennas. I called using Feld Hell several times but no
takers.

We will be monitoring .290 during openings... otherwise looking for
meteor scatter contacts.
