I'll be on late morning and most of the rest of the day. 37LSB.


If tomorrow is anything like today, all the channels will be on fire. I was on 37LSB from 5-7:30 pm and then shut down for another of our nighttime thunderstorms. But in that two and a half hours, I bagged 27 contacts. Ontario, New Hampshire, New York city, Pennsylvania, Ohio (4), Illinois, Tennessee (2), Alabama, Mississippi, Texas, Arizona, and California (4), and some others I can't remember off the top of my head. Never took my amp off of low (300W).


BTW --- Luz came down to the shack while I was Dxing, and was amazed on how many stations were calling for me. She asked if she could try, so I went to 27.555USB where most of the operators are spanish-speaking. I called CQ and said that my wife wanted to try Dxing.  I hooked up with an operator in Chile and handed the mike to her. Luz talks to her friends local all the time, but never to a stranger in another country. She had "mike fright" at first, but the Chile operator calmed her down and they had a nice long chat. She really enjoyed it, and talked about it all night. She's hooked. I think this will make buying new gear a lot easier LOL.  BUT . . . looks like I will be sharing my DX time from now on.  :(:(
