[TVARC] FQP at Halftime

I agree with you Rich. I spent a couple of hours yesterday listening to Rusty on 20m. I don’t think he could hear me since I am currently in Maryland and my delta is pointing towards Europe. As fast as he could answer there was another station. Amazing!

I just don’t get it.  But I’m willing to sit behind, stay out of the way watch and learn if you’ll have me for a couple hours on a future phone contest.
