Thanks for working my weak signal, Jim. That MN to NE hop on 20 meters is all skip zone. Mike, N0ANE

[@WB0RLJ]

Glad to get you in the log, Mike!

[@N6RUN]

You sounded great on my end! Looks like we made it work with 10 watts from my end - I was using my KX2 at a local park.

[@WB0RLJ]

Great to get you in the log again!!

[@JayN4GO]

Having key issues on my right paddle. Cleaned the contact last night. Maybe the cable

[@Utahforrest]

Jim: At the 1:37:48 mark that loud humming is me keying on my radio trying to hunt you!! I posted a short about it today. I have no idea what happened to my Yaesu 991A but I was going absolutely crazy trying to hunt people last night with nobody respond to me. I ended up switching to my QMX and that’s how I hunted you. I had no clue my radio was doing that and I only found out via WebSDR how my signal sounded. I’m very sorry for disrupting your activation with that annoyance. I still have not discovered where it originated but switching from semi break in to full break in has now provided the fix where I can get back on the air. Sorry again! 73 de KI7QCF

[@WB0RLJ]

@@Utahforrest actually, I’m glad it was you! I thought somebody was out there harassing me and that always makes me feel bad about humankind, LOL! I’d rather it be a bad break-in/keyer! I’m glad that you are making some progress and getting it figured out. I saw your short earlier this afternoon and I actually did some googling to try to figure out what might be going on with your 991A, but didn’t find anything that made sense. Hopefully now that it’s narrowed down to QSK, that might give you a little bit more to go on. 73!

[@Utahforrest]

@@WB0RLJ hahaha. You handled it with way more class than I would’ve! I was very relieved watching it back that you sent “No” to T0NTO and not me! At that moment, in real time, I questioned whether our CW friendship had come to an end 😂.
