Never heard your reply (split) but I did hear him say, "November One Alpha Papa India".
I was like, .... HEY, that's Al! NICE!!!
If they can hear him.... now's my chance!!
About 5 minutes later - WHAMO... I hear "Charlie November".
Gave my CS twice,
then I heard "Kilo Charlie One"..
Again twice, then "Five Nine Charlie Tango CT".
Nice to get thru the Wall.
And that is one of the things that I push for the club members. The thrill of getting a rare DX station and seeing your call in the worked log, getting the QSL or LBOTW contact on ARRL.
We try and make our station the best it can be for the the antennas we can erect and the bands we can work.
Then work on our skills for what interests us, DX, Contests, 10-10, Counties, IOTAs or what ever floats your boat.
