Hoping to contact a few from the site again. Some day!!
Only heard 1 person today and it was a Jamaica Radio so it must have been running plenty of power because no one else came thru !
Well I got up extra early today to get my SUV inspected and after I got back decided to swap out mobile antennas to experiment. After I was done and could see DX was rolling I decided since my neighbor was gone somewhere with his friend I'd head for the radio room and mess around with 3 of my base stations. I made some contacts on all 3 bases and they all seemed to be from Texas. So I guess I'm ready for when the season kicks in Full Swing. It has seemed to be down the passed few days, but it is time to work out the bugs. Anyone else have luck today ?
Plenty of dx today down south of San Antonio. I was able to make a few contacts in the short time I messed with the radio today. What state are you in?
Would be nice to make contact with you. Any other WWDX as well. I go by 553. Sometimes Texas 53.

I sometimes call myself PA50 or Keystone Radio but I guess haven't decided yet on a set of numbers or call sight unique & easy to remember. I have been trying to ask to see if there is any WWDX members on the air waves. I've spent more time trying to build and learn a system than actually talking DX. Hopefully I'll get it together if we have a good season. But chances are good we will connect because Texas is a strong player around here because seems like South West is my best shot out of this Valley. And I can forget North East because I'm up against the hill on that side of me. I also laugh because some operators just seem to have the Jive down Pat! (Longevity) I think you would call me a Mud Duck ! LOL Doesn't help I'm not much of a talker either but I like the Challenge !
I finally got the base station up and running and soon as I powered up the band was wide open.
Made several contacts just as I was testing everything out so it was a great welcome back party.
Ps
The q6 pro is such a nice radio, it behaves nothing like the original. The only con I found in just the hour or so I talked is that with so many features we're gonna have to get used to each other.

I am standing by out in the garage, this week we have my son's Grand Cherokee that needs ball joints and tierod ends. While we are at it, he opted to replace the rotors and calipers. The only ball joints that I could find that fit correctly are the Dana Spicer ones. Five different aftermarket sets all had the stud length wrong. Thankfully Amazon Prime has free returns....

Glad to hear you got your station up. I thought I heard you yesterday, I will be standing by on 37 out in the garage today.
