Well thought I would update this post. For the last few weeks it's seems, almost every night about 8pm-10pm I've been getting some phenomenal DX from just about every state up the east coast from FL and west out to as far as TX and North from there as well.
Between last night and the night before I must have logged probably 100 or more new contacts. I spoke to more people than that I would venture to say as some were people I have gotten to know well. Don't know if any of the forum members have been on, but it's been an experience for me as normally it's pretty quiet at night.
I also was able to speak to Vulture Radio 45 out of Pensacola, FL last night, never got him before although I have talked to others near him. But what's amazing is the signal he was giving me and I was giving him. S5 to S9 here on my Icom 746, no preamp on either, and me doing the same to him or better he said. Pensacola is 384 miles direct from me. Pretty good contact at any rate!! Had a blast and hopefully will continue to at night!! If anyone sees this let me know, shoot a PM or post here, I'll catch it, and maybe we can link up on air!! Like I said, been talking with gents from GA to Canada and west out to about TX. And it's been rather nice actually!! No noise toys and Shizz heads to be bothered by!! Just thought I would let some others know. Keep that radio on at Night between 7:30-10:30pm!! It's been great DX!! From FL to Canada, back and forth!! Anyway. 73 and God Bless to all and Happy DXing!!!
