Australia & Hawaii, plus it was open to the other side of town for my first club contact. lol

 

[Moleculo]

I see some PSK31 activity on 10 and some of the beacons are starting to work from the west coast to east.

I'll try on phone on .455 for a bit to see if it's working...

 

[AudioShockwav]

I have a few things to do this morning and then I will be in on Phone.....I will jump around on the frequency's looking for contacts.
Listen for KE6LYU
Will also work mobile some today.
Good Luck to everyone, and I look forward to putting a Voice with a Call today.

gee,...band went EAST now,.......... 1702, now working S.Africa from FL

 

[FatHam]

Winning.... How long do I have to keep this up? lol 28.455

Question, does the same call sign (already logged on 10M) count as a second contact if made on 6M, is it one call sign per contact ?

LOL, no 1 point per member contacted regardless of mode/band.

That's gives me an idea for the next contest, though...
