I barely heard an x-ray on 3920.5

Heard someone try now we have a station stepping on below us. I'm failing as net control

You're fine, conditions and my antenna aren't great.  Now there's a tuner upper below.

The tuner uppers were some good ol boys on 3919 marking their territory.

Yup we have tuners and stations moving in. My antenna sucks and I has no amp.

The noise just increased dramatically here within the last couple of minutes.

I'm occasionally hearing a station way, way down in the noise, but there's no way I'll pull it out if that's you.

Good signal for no amp!  Gonna put you in the log, that makes 2 bands.

The ol' gunslinger is on 3916. Hello, Hello, Hello.

I heard someone talking for about 10 seconds then they went back into the noise. I gave my call sign a few times for grins but nothing heard.

40m seems quiet. That could be a bad sign though - 7.28

voacap thinks 40m should get me out to the entire continent. Here goes...

I just heard a very faint foxtrot

There's somebody on 7283, 30 over here, I'm getting a little bit of bleed over from them

I hear someone in the background but I've got high local noise there.  I'm out of here in a moment anyways.

I threw a couple of CQ ARFCOMs out; not hearing anything on freq.  I too am getting a little bleed from the stations at 7283.

I've heard some voices. I've tried everything I can think of electronically. Narrowed my transmit bw.

I heard a KG7 station but I can't even pick out the whole call.

That was probably me.  Trying again.

Man if you had just a little more I could get you. I don't think you're hearing me. I've thrown on pre amps and everything to hear you.

I've only got 100 watts...  pedal is to the floor!

There was another cq arfcom. Talk louder!

I did!  I even stood up on the chair that time.

Now someone is whistling to tune up on freq. Think I'm going to hang it up for tonight but had a good time none the less!
Link Posted: 1/13/2015 11:17:22 PM EDT

something...wtx - I had you for a little bit

I heard the whistling as well. It was S7
Link Posted: 1/13/2015 11:17:22 PM EDT

Is that a whistler-upper?  I heard him too.

We tried.

Trying one more time on a different antenna.

Yeah, he whistled maybe a half dozen times, ascending tone. I never heard him talk though, or reply to any of us. He had a good strong signal.

The east coast crowd: me, Gyprat, Pilotman, DirtNasty (although I think his radio is in the shop), not sure who else, might be able to make it happen on 80M. Cubic Watts do help--those of us with amps can usually make comm's pretty well.

What time and I'll try to make it?

I should be available starting around 0145z if anyone else is up.  I'm running barefoot and my antenna is pretty low to the ground but what the hell I'll give it a shot.

It's all packed around 3.898. We can try somewhere around 3.840-3.850. All I got is a lousy die-pole for 80 meters.
Link Posted: 2/17/2015 9:43:51 PM EDT

somebody on 840, 843, maybe 846, and someone tuning 848

ETA: someone on 850. Anybody from here?

ETA: YAWN and out.

Couple of guys having a chat on 3.898, I have to stay above 3.800.  Someone want to pick a frequency and call CQ?
Link Posted: 2/17/2015 10:39:43 PM EDT

3.847 calling cq. W3***
Link Posted: 2/17/2015 10:44:57 PM EDT

If you are W3P** I can hear you chatting,  I'll call back after you get done

My call is W3R**

ETA:  W3P**, you have a good signal.  I can't get out and don't want to go and mess with the antenna in the foot of snow.  Could hear you calling CQ Arfcom and heard you chatting about screen name.  Good Luck, 73.
