What channel were you two working ? I was in my radio room working on my Lincoln II+ getting it ready for a trip to DTB Radio for a alignment Monday if I can. DX was sporadic with in and out. But I was in the Engineering menu and believe I have the voice set clear now, but couldn't make a contact before DX got crappy.

I'm at work but hopefully I'll get some dx when I get home this afternoon. I'll be listening for you, my friend. I'll try until 7pm, then the NFL draft starts and the radio will be off. :LOL:

Well the DX was crappy this morning in & out but had to try out my Lincoln II+ with my KL-503 P after being in the Engineering Menu making adjustments yesterday. had it on 37 lsb and heard faint activity so I gave a CQ Shout for the heck of it to see if I would get a response and one of those South Texas Dudes down by the Gulf of Mexico came back to me and after I clarifiered him in so I heard him well I ask how my radio sounded and he said great and said don't touch anything. Looks like we are making progress, but you shouldn't have to have the clarifier at 2 Oclock to understand everybody. Hopefully DTB Radio will get me straightened out Monday. Dx is getting more challenging, wonder what it will be like in another 3 weeks when all these trees have their leafs.
