[Wswss] P29NI in QI45 active on 6m EME today!

[LANCE COLLISTER]

Hello!

I completed with P29NI this morning at 1503 Z on 50.205.  W1JJ and I were calling him 
in the second sequence since his moonrise, but we were not seeing any reply from him. 
  Mick saw three sets of strong echoes when he went back to receive and wondered who 
else might be calling Mike...

We both shut down when his moon reached 20 degrees elevation and we had not decoded 
anything from him.  As I was shutting things down here, I noticed a decode pop up at 
1543Z on the backup computer that was still running....  P29NI was sending reports to 
Mick in the second sequence!  I powered back up again and began to call P29NI again, 
this time transmitting in the first sequence.  I also called Mick on his cell phone 
and left a message for him describing what was going on.

It looks like he has things working very well indeed on 6m, but I caution you to 
watch to see what JT65 sequence he is transmitting in....by tmrw he may be back in 
the first sequence, as he had been planning in his announcements prior to the trip.

GL and VY 73, Lance
