awwwww.....that's messed up. dee snyder lives about 10 minutes from me. aside from seeing twisted sister at....sundance i think....before they were heavy duty into his wife's makeup back in the 70's, i first met him while he was at a local shopping mall, have seen him there on more then a few other occasions, though not recently, and he frequents my place of employment from time to time. they have their place in history, and, like jimmy buffet, there is a time & a place when twisted sister music is appropriate ;-)
being in the midwest i have a tough time getting through to europe and the uk. I also get skip from hawaii, new zealand and australia but on both coasts the boots beat me to it. I could get a linear like those coasties but that would make me as rude as they are.
Yes there are a lot of lip flappers out there...with a "35 dollar radio" and think they should sing Ring of Fire,
who fail to mention their $2000 linears....
and some leave their boots on to talk local on 38LSB in Ft Myers Florida, who are constantly worried about a Modulator problem, so they visit their local Bartender all the time.
They crank up their squelch because the DX is bothering them.
I repeat...They crank up their squelch because the DX is bothering them.
This is the same logic as a 4 year old covering her face and saying, "you can't see me".
They would be better off if they both got into a phone booth. It would ease their separation anxiety.
Their obliviousness is astounding.

Nice job! After some practice you will get used to the accents.
I did pretty well myself earlier today.

i was able to talk to Peter in Amsterdam again today
his whole call sign is 19pvg001. good enough contact to exchange emails.
I almost made a contact with AK1300 in Stuttgart Germany but he QSYed to a 27._00 frequency and I can't follow him there
and Eric thats with 18watts, a 5/8 groundplane, no ocean skip, with both coasts awake and breaking... I did great
come inland 900 miles, see how you do. I bet my favorite hat you run more than 18watts

I have heard Peter out there before. Recently in fact. He lives around Hertogenbosch (sp?), Amsterdam.
