At first, I heard you call my WR-11 numbers. It was weak at first, but conditions were changing for the better. You sounded stronger, clearer, and a little louder when you switched from the A99 to the SGM. I know you don't put much stock to DX reports for antenna checks; but the few times that we have talked and you switched to the SGM, the signal improved in every way.

Tim/Knight Patrol 82 out of Galveston TX came over your head a few times; but he runs a 3 element beam. At this time conditions started to fade a little bit, but then you came back and we talked well/long enough to discuss the WWRF being offline. We also discussed the price gouging by H&Y Electronics for the SGM. We had a real pipeline going for more than a few minutes. Then, a lot of traffic began from all over the NW, the Deep South, and the Mid West.

Nice conditions today for awhile.
Be listening for you tomorrow - Marconi; and let's see/hear how that Imax measures up to the SGM . . .

[QUOTE="Robb, post: 258032, member: 8446"] At first, I heard you call my WR-11 numbers. It was weak at first, but conditions were changing for the better. You sounded stronger, clearer, and a little louder when you switched from the A99 to the SGM. I know you don't put much stock to DX reports for antenna checks; but the few times that we have talked and you switched to the SGM, the signal improved in every way.
