Had a good connection with Operator Paul from
Had a QSO with 553 Codeman in 36LSB!!
He was coming in great but there were so many stations coming into SoCal from Texas. Hey thanks for that small QSO @codeman !!!
That’s quite the trip!!! Awesome job!!!I hit Ireland & Scotland today with the McKinley today in the mobile with my Tram 3000 & KL-203P. WOO HOO !
I think the success was do to the elevation I was at with a wide open sky line so I just figured I'd give er a whirl. First real contacts across the pond. I've tried from my base station in this valley with no luck.That’s quite the trip!!! Awesome job!!!
Yes, I saw you had a tornado there. I thought wth?? A tornado? Strange weather we're having around the US, brother.Finally stopped raining in SoCal. Hey we even had a EF1 tornado a few miles from me…wild!!!
Called out and a local said I sounded like I was starving for power. Weird…couldn’t figure out why. Turned off my headlights and bam…full power, sounding good!! Even made a contact with a Jamaica station!! I think I need an alternator with more amps

A KL503. I know it draws because as I key up at idle, the idle drops. I guess with the headlights on at idle (stop and go traffic) the alternator doesn’t have enough amps.What amp you running ???
Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare |

Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned |
