Comments:
Went hill topping with my rover to far southern MN, EN33en. There was a
stationary weather front draped E/W across southern MN that affect propagation,
some good, some bad. Working north across the front was difficult with what
should have been easy ~ 200 km Qs being S1 CW. However the front was producing
some rain to the south in IA and E/W propagation seemed fair to good. While I
was able to avoid much of the rain myself the wind was from the east gusting to
over 35mph such that I had to move my Subaru around to shelter the 5.7 and 10G
dishes to work various directions. I can still hear the wind whistling through
my ears. Best DX by band with #Q's in()is as follows: 902 456km(5), 1296
456km(4), 2304 456km(3), 3400 456km(1), 5.7 303km(2), 10G 633km(6). That 633km
10G contact was with N0OY (EM18ct) on RS as was the 525km 10G contact with WQ0P
in EM19wf. Thanks to K9PW/R for all the nice 456km Qs on all bands except 5760
too, those were tropo. 73, Jon
