Well, seeee? I "thought" that might have been the case but then,
I could have been wrong.......so I cashed in my $ .02 worth....<GRIN>
In fact, it happened today.......talked with VE1XL (Dick) in Canada
using PACTOR I and near the end of the contact, I could hear a
('scuse me but....) PMBO or at least a station sounding like one
right close to use and fairly strong. Gave Dick some competition
for sure. It was surprising because I had been listening for about
15 mins on 3.5880 with no activity noted at all. Then, after talking
with Dick for the better part of an hour, voila! There's this PACTOR
station suddenly making its presence known.
I did post a "cut 'n paste" of the chat just for show 'n tell and give
a little push for PACTOR I activity - it still works, of course. It was
fun today.
