Greetings to all,I may have what should be one of the most "footprint
stretching" DX QSOs via AO-40. A group of German fellows made a DX-pedition to
Cocos (Keeling) Islands in 2003. Their grid locator was NH87 and my grid was
DN81. I heard them only once and it was on a day near the end of t
wn.)
3 Ft. Spun Aluminum Dish with Down East 2.4 Ghz. pre-amp attached.
19 Element 70 cm. Yagi: Cush Craft Model 719B
9913 low loss coax in various lengths of 50+ feet.
The above equipment enabled me to work 1000+ QSOs and 93 entities via AO-40.
Thanks and Happy Holidays to everyone. Frank
