Only thing I have mobile right now is a 10 meter rig. Anyone up, I'll be calling on 28.400 during the same time.

and if nothing on 20m...will be more than happy to roll on up to 28.400 too! Matter of fact. Will hit 28.4 first for oh...30 or so minutes and if nothing, bump back to to 14.313.
I should be home about 1630. Will listen on both frequencies...

K6WR operating a remote station in Los Cruxes NM from his QTH in Los Gatos.
Contact 7:15 pm EDT.
I could hear him before the KW was activated. He used a big beam too though. LOL!
I was 20RMS (avg) the whole time.
Remote W7DX station: http://www.wwdxc.org/
I think that's it. I have OCD. W7DX.com doesn't work.

His remote hook up was still going.
