<div dir="ltr"><div>sounds like he's shooting for the moon. pretty good with that setup, though apparently you can make contacts when the moon is at the horizon if your noise level is low enough with jt65. my noise here is way too high for that though with the spare 2m9s it could be doable. you should try it when the 706 comes back in, you have pretty low noise there. <br>
<br></div>looks like he doesn't work vhf except 6 meters, cant put up more antennas, and is pretty much CW-only. Would be tough to bring him over here.<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

with I2FAK .My station Icom 706MllG 50 watts, battery powered my antenna is a
Cushcraft A148-10S. My antenna was set up on the beach on the Jersey shore ,the
weather was brutal, <span> </span>high winds and surf .
My antenna was at a height of 9/10 feet; moon rise was 13:00 UTC and running
WSJT65b . What a sight when I saw:“OOO” then” RRR”. Franco report to me was
-31/32 ,I’ll take it. I think I’m hooked. My next attempt I will use my I Com
746 pro much better radio and 100 watts . Also I must operate portable due to
the high trees in my yard. However, the beach is only a few miles from my home.
Maybe this spring I will upgrade to a 17B2.</font></div><div><font face="Times New Roman">
