[bars] Feel like working some local DX?

[Andy Wallace]

Well Niece KA1ULN (11 miles) pulled me out of the noise long enough for one QSO! Thanks, Niece!

WA1VAB got only my call and W1AST got nothing. Not surprizing as I was running 250mW into a 40M EDZ. Non rotatable. :)

But one RBN in Italy heard me at 3dB so there’s hope. 

Oh well, if nothing else I got some practice in using my Begali HST paddle in Sideswiper mode.

Yep, it was still fun!

I'm listening on 056 and have my beam pointed at you. The Czech Republic was coming in loud recently. I hope I can hear you.
