[SixClub] 6m US Ø's > ZL / VK Contact

[Pete]

 The following report was lifted from another forum reflector, and describes the contact of a lifetime. Terrestrial DX like this from NA is truly among the rarest of 6m achievements, along w/ JA's.

> Jon, ZL1RS I gave a 5/3/9 but perfectly readable but week was more like it. Heard him in and out for 10 minutes then he was Q5 and took several calls to get his attention but he is a good operator. He is ZK2RS I worked in 1984. KC0CF in EN32 worked him about 20 minutes after I did. Could hear KC0CF on the back of my beam. ZL1RS was back in then only on. 115 then. Never heard a peap from ZL1TPY or any VKs. Goes to show how the E link lines up is critical as a few Arizona, Southern California weak stations were in when I worked ZL1RS. 1st ZL in over 20 years!
