Lucky enough to get him on his initial call, pleased with this for a new one this time around. I haven’t worked into Reunion for at least 30 years, and never with just a vertical!!

A nice 10 minute QSO with Antoine before the QSB kicked in, I told him we are flying to Malta next month for a few days, so he wants to meet up for an eyeball! Hopefully that will materialise.

Well done Craig.
A61AS was booming through here, couldn't raise him but did hear him call you!
I'm still in the starting blocks......
Still have not got me running shoes on.

"big pile up", I'd say. Today and yesterday. Tried longer than you both today and yesterday to get through to A80K. Gave up (I don't often give up) and went and and had a nice chat with a portable station in Crete instead. Well done for breaking through to that one Craig.
