Mother nature is really showing the love. Seems skip is rolling good on just about any channel for Arkansas today. I should have had a note pad handy to write down all the contacts.

Heard motor mouth maul in socal today. A little faint but there.
A little bit of skip rolling in on 38 LSB around noon Mountain time (1900Z) on Saturday 3/13 before the time change, but wasn't able to work any with the barefoot mobile Uniden 980SSB into a tailgate-mounted 102 inch whip. Sounded like all "big gun" base stations talking to one another.
A bit off-topic, but the National Street Rod Association hosted a "Route 66" hotrod show held at the state fair / exposition center in Albuquerque. First annual was back in 2019, 2nd annual show will be this summer Aug. 27-29, COVID permitting. They had 500+ cars registered for the first annual back in 2019.

Think your “CH 6” 3kW mobile amp system might mess with a few fuel injection computers?
Best go armed. As, afterwards, that’s a crowd you ain’t gonna outrun.

I've got a pretty good setup, but how does one keep the antenna aluminum elements from melting once they start arcing (time mark 0:57 in the video below)? Liquid helium closed-cycle refrigeration? If that's the case, need yet another alternator to power the antenna cooling system.

Lots is skip out west. Kinda mashy and comes in and out like the tide. Big radios having the advantage.

I don't think I would want to be within 100 ft of those guys when they are on the key. I wonder what his SWR was when he was making plasma?
