Made my first long distance contact on 11mtr 27.691 FM to Illinois to a US Truck driver on the Interstate 72 cheers No idea where that is  scratch

This was about 2 weeks ago and only lasted about 2 mins, I took a chance using my CT call sign and to my surprise got him Very Happy 
 It felt like Convoy 2 lol!
