Hiro san, sorry I was late to the party. I would have been able to copy better if my local noise floor had not been so high. Even the -101D noise reducers weren't quite up to the task. Anyway, it was good to know that you were on the other side of the QSO. What rig were you using? I was barefoot, 100 w out. BTW, I have been looking for JA SKCC members on 15 and 20 around 2300Z +/-.? Also, I saw your msg on SKCC. io sked site but it took several minutes to establish my membership and by the time I succeeded you had QRT. I left a DM there for you anyway.? Vy 73 de Paul W1PR
