An absolutely superb catch and sounding almost as good as we'd hear things
like this in Newfoundland.
I do need to get me one of those HF-1000 thingies ! I had leads on a couple
over the past couple years but they fell through and I didn't pursue too
aggressively since I still do most DX via the car battery and R8A or B and
don't think I could run the HF1000 via car battery.
73 and congrats on what I must state is by far the best catch I've seen you
report in the short time I've known you... KAZ
