Yep Saturday morning I heard Ireland xxxx0057 from division 25, I think. I called him back and he responded on the first call. We didn't have much of a conversation however, because there were just too many responders from both sides of the Atlantic. In all I made contact with three guys on the Emerald Island using both my AstroPlane and with a little less signal on my A99 on a 10' foot mast using 80 watts. Sometimes the audio was much clearer on the A99 and probably had to do with some imporved angles working at the time and the antenna being only 12' feet high.

Just prior to these contacts, California, Washington, Montana, Kentucky, Florida, and West and Eastern Canada were all working in the red.
