Made my first contact on skip about a week ago. I'm in northern Mn about 45 miles south of the Canada border. I hit south of Nashville Tn 37lsb. With my barefoot grant xl and a five foot stainless still whip. Not to shabby in my book. I didn't think it was possible to hit the skip lane. But it worked out that night. His call sign is 313. And I'm 778. Up this way we don't usally get much skip due to the fact we are on the iron range. It plays havic when trying to get skip up here. But we make due talking local. There's a few of us that usally are on 38lsb. There's 338 up in cook,mn. 820 up in angora,mn. And my self 778 up here in britt,mn. Most every night were on the radio. Hoping for some good skip to come up our way. If you hear us on drop on in we welcome any and all who can hear us. I know on my grant xl I'm getting a little over 35 miles on any giving day. But hope to make more contacts as soon as we get skip up here. Hope to hear some new voices out there. This is 778 I'm clear and out
