Well I finally figured it out and sat waiting for 4A4A to come on at his sunset (0130-0200Z). Waiting with baited breath with the split set 1.1 up and antennas tuned. So they come on and so does the Jammer! A S9 buzz saw right on his freq. Must have been an East coast station as the only way I heard my call was using the 270 deg. Beverage. Sheesh! Same thing happened on 1850 around 0400Z so didn't make on SSB. Too many frustrated A-types out there....
But hey, the band was in great shape with EU coming in early and strong and OD5NJ putting in a big signal an hour before his sunrise. Too bad I couldn't bust the pile up. I hear he has strong local QRN that 100W won't pass. Put Guam in the log also to reach 100 on 160 with 100w (76 since last August as VE3CV). Now I can get some sleep again. The snow is melting so the Beverages will be put away soon. Cheers Jeff VE3CV (VE3FRX) _______________________________________________ UR RST IS ... ... ..9 QSB QSB - hw? BK
