    Re: US on 17 Meters

    17 just wasn't happening for me. It was fairly quiet, but the only station I ever heard well was the PY2 that squatted on '140 for a while. I caught a little of a good sounding station in Nevada working on 18.140, a "6" call, when I first sat at the rig.

    Also, I think I heard a faint whisper of CW ... surely it was Dave calling me, but I couldn't even copy that!

    Being short on time, I never checked any other band.

    I appreciate the thought, but obviously it didn't work out. I don't know what hit me yesterday, but I just felt like I was walking around in a fog all day. Wasn't a hangover either (not on one beer and a sip of champagne!).

    I only made the one appearance in the shack, and that was it.

    Didn't even get to enjoy any of the bowl games. Heck, after I conked out, my wife watched more of the Penn State game than I did, and that's a first (since she's a Pitt alumni!)

    Conditions on 17 aren't that great today, either. Anyone want to try, oh, 1600 Z on or about 18140 on Sunday?

    Hearing 1's and 2's on 18.140 +/- with a little QSB, but not too bad.

    Do we have any 3's in the house?

    The 4 is leaving the building. I have a very long 50 minute drive to take my shepherd (pictured in my avatar) to the surgeon's facility for her reconstructive knee surgery.

    Not looking forward to this at all ... :(
