[TVARC] FW: Short Path QSOs

[K2PS Pete Stafford]

Following up on my request, 40M at 2P did the trick for the 200mi QSO.  S9
signals both directions with a little bit of fading.

 

Thanks to all who responded.

Subject: Short Path QSOs

 

I just found out that my old college roommate recently got his General
license.  I'd like to QSO with him on HF, if possible.  He lives in
Tequesta, FL, which is on the east coast, about 200 miles southeast from
here.  I tried 20M and 12M this afternoon but, not surprisingly, heard
nothing.  I'm guessing that it's too far for groundwave, and too close for
short skip, but maybe there's some time of day and band (80m - 6m) that
might be possible.

 

Does anyone have a suggestion?
