W9RHP · Crawford St. · Terre Haute IN · 1962
Seven QSL cards confirmed this quarter and the pile is still growing. I run every contact on AM voice
or straight-key CW, exchange signal reports both ways, and I do not count it confirmed until the
physical card arrives in the mail. Twenty meters has been extraordinary — paths I could not crack
last year are opening clean for 30 to 45 minutes at a stretch. I worked Thomas Murphy [W1AZ]
on 40 the same night we both had our receivers on 20 following the Friendship 7 telemetry
window — Glenn was three orbits out when the opening dropped in from Maine, right on cue. Seven
countries. Six continents. Going for eight cards before July.
