Excellent DX Day! Highlight of it all was having a nice QSO with forum member Dmans aka MS-481. Enjoyed talking to you David! You were clearing the airways coming into NC.

Talked with stations in 14 different states with multiple contacts in several of those states.
 
Prior to today I never received more than a few seconds since this thread convinced me to chase it.

Wrong time

Wrong place

Aimed wrong direction.

Not turned on long enough.

Etc.

Even to the point I couldn’t get my radio dialed in so brief has been RX.

Meaning, in under two minutes I’d heard more on SSB than ever before.

Ever.

Ha!

I’m 3.5-hours in.

It was a relief to turn SW at Cleveland down IH71. Fewer. Clearer. Ahh, here we go.

It’s great!
