I wish to thank all those AM operators who went out of their way to get on the air, many with special calls, in order to ensure a strong AM presence in the new voice bands.
While I was unable to contact anyone during the first hour due to band conditions, I had 3 very nice contacts just after sundown on Friday. Of those 3 contacts, only the final one with Larry, NE1S, crashed due to the combination of band conditions and my low power. You may also be certain that our presence in the new territory was noticed by others. While most of the comments were positive, I did hear one band cop say: "That National AM Congress of Social Misfits has once again taken it upon themselves to appropriate territory to promote their own arrested development." Just think! This guy allegedly knows the code too! Well, if this is indeed the "National AM Congress," please keep up the good leadership work.
