May the 4th was with me. The FORCE was strong with this one as the bands were awful again as expected with approaching storms. Hot, muggy and steamy weather on Kentucky Derby Day in Louisville, KY. #amateurradio #Hamradio #pota #parksontheair
@N4JAW The bands were weird today. Some strong signals and good RBN spots, but a lot of 1 dB and 3 dB spots, too. Took me two hours to make 20 #POTA contacts. I saw you spotted on 40m, and was going to QSY and try to work you, but the “last seen” time was 20 minutes or so, and you had probably quit by then.
@kb6nu Dan I saw you also just before breaking down. I listened on your frequency for 10 minutes and never hear a whisper. RBN kept updating your CQ calls so I knew you were there, but your signal was just going over my head. RBN showed my 20 meter signals were going long into Central America and western Canada.
@N4JAW Yeah. That's why I thought I might catch you on 40m. Next time.
@kb6nu Next Time for sure
