HB2HB! AC9JQ — N3FJZ on 40 with Homebrew Rigs

On Saturday October 24, Dean AC9JQ (Indiana) and Rick N3FJZ (Maryland) made contact on 40 meter SSB using Si5351/TIA BITX rigs. FB!:

Bill:

Dean and I made contact. We both were in and out most of the time, but conditions seemed to improve towards the end where I could understand Dean about 90%. Using the RST “by the book”, I would say he was a 33, 3 =(readable with some difficulty), and signal strength was 3=(weak), and based on what Dean was reporting, my signal back to him was the same – 33.

Rick – N3FJZ.
