Pretty good into Europe yesterday.  Not so good for USA NPOTA.  If I would have seen this while I was out in the park I would have tried to find you.

I'm running some 20m jt65 with an end fed in the living room of my apartment. Not hearing a whole lot, but that's probably due to my high noise level. If anyone in TX, OK, LA, or NM wants to try for a QSO I'm monitoring 14.078 14.076 +1400

QRT with nothing heard and it's past my bedtime.

Holy crap, had a bad piece of coax.  Night and day difference.  Looking for a clear spot to call

Edit: 14.245 USB

Edit2: back to scan and pounce.  Want to make at least one contact before I head to bed

Edit3: QRT for the night.  No joy on a QSO, but damn, does this thing have ears!

I just tested through Tech, General and Extra in one sitting. I settled on the General. I hadn't studied for the extra at all.

I hear faint noises and can make out occasional words but not strong enough for a QSO.

Just got my call sign approved thru Echolink, QSO'd with a guy operating a repeater out of his dorm room in Socorro, NM, which is weird because Echolink said the node was in Denver.

I'll keep playing around with it.

Just monitoring the W0WYX repeater (449.825) locally. Got in touch with a couple fellers on Echolink but that's it.

Heh? Is that a setting or something I need to fix?

For some reason I can't hear certain people. All I get is the repeater tone. Are you familiar with this repeater? Does it need a ctcss tone for receiving too?

Setting the station back up after the storm, going to be on hf, who's in?

ETA calling CQ on 14.287, will also be listening.
Now on 40m, 7.187. Calling CQ sometimes and listening too.

Done for the night!
Worked five guys don't think any were ARFCOMMERS.
