[GreenKeys] About a "Straight Key Night" for RTTY

[Wa3frp]

Bill, 
I wasn't home but I see, this morning, that the RTTY Skimmer located northwest of me was reporting your CQ's starting on 14095 and then moving to 14092.8.   Here's hoping that you made some QSOs since you did have a good signal into the east coast.   Local WX for Monday looks questionable but maybe we can try for a QSO later this week. 
Thanks 73

Russ,

My 80 and 40 meter propagation seems to be limited to the western states - my antenna siting is very poor, only about 6 feet away from my steel-framed house.

According to QRZ, you are 2451.5 mi. ENE from me. All of my cross-country QSO’s have been on 20 meters. Going back over my log, it looks pretty much hit-or-miss from 1500Z to 2300Z, with most east coast contacts around 1900-2000 and 2300.

What I’ll try to do, for this weekend at least, is to run some CQ’s every hour on the hour on 14.095 +/- from 2000 to 2400Z, both Saturday and Sunday (minus any XYL shopping trips). Let’s see if we can get the ionosphere working for us.

73,
Bill - KE3BK
