[600MRG] wow! someone outside of the area did hear my tinysignal!

[AA5AM - Scott Armstrong]

Hi John and the group,

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone.

Haven't been very active with 630m monitoring for the past several months.
Working 3rd shift cuts into all the lowband fun.

John I'll keep the RX parked on the WSPR for at least 3 more hours maybe
longer.
I'm running the 160m Inv-L tonight for an antenna. The 600m Inv-L is still
laying in the yard from the ice storm. If the pasture isn't too muddy maybe
I can get it restrung tomorrow.

Scott AA5AM

Well, I've changed my mind yet again... Its pretty typical for me to not be
able to leave well enough alone..

Since the band is packed tonight, I am reverting back to the U3 at no more
than 10 mW for at least a little while and possibly over night if I start
seeing reports again. I've setup shop at 475.642.


Keep in mind that the U3 is not connected to the internet and thus its not
connected to WSPRnet so unless I am spotted by someone, the map will not
show my callsign. As I am typing this, it looks like AA5AM has just spotted
me again so I should show up on the map.. When he shuts down, I will
disappear after 10 minutes unless I am spotted again... Just an FYI if you
look at the map and don't see me.


Thanks for all the listeners! I couldn't stand to wait until tomorrow night
to try again since AA5AM, XJM Eric and K5UV heard my 5 -10 mW signal
earlier... Sorry for all of those I won't be hearing/reporting tonight,
however.



73,

John XIQ
