Hi Gary,
I was actually still feeling ragged out from a long day of travel the day before, so I felt like it was an abbreviated session. Most of the action did appear to be on the lower part of the band. I did not have it together enough to do any recording during that session. I hope to do some recording during the next session. The FSL really makes all the difference! The condo I'm staying in does face none, so I intend to do some AK DXing as well. I appreciate the tips and insights! Thankfully, I'll be here a while. I intend to allocate some dedicated TP DX time both here on Kauai and later in Kona.
