Finally got to sit down at the radio for the first time this week. Fired up the 6666 and listening while paying some bills. Heard 22 French Guiana CQ a few times and then QSYed to 380. I followed and heard him CQ again and called out to him, conditions were weak and I didn't catch his name. We talked for a few minuets and then let him return to the DX as others were calling him at that point. I looked up French Guiana, I had no idea it was on the coast above Brazil and to the east of Venezuela. I am getting a geography lesson for sure with this DX. Got another pin on the map too. I am going to need a bigger map or smaller pins, haha!
Had radio on while at home yard.

Pretty active morning around the high plains. Put the 6666 on the air and made a few qso's with a couple operators in Arizona. Not bad being it was completely unexpected.
I'm hoping to make a couple qso's this evening. Currently working at my side job, and I spend 90 percent of my time in my truck so I'll have some play time. Just fired up radio and seems conditions are not the best currently
Tried an amp out on my radio, dead key getting swr of 1 but when I talk it's hitting in 20. What would cause this? Would the 1 foot jumper from radio to amp be causing this?
There's a few threads on the subject, try the search and you'll never know what you find.
Started picking up for me. Logged Houston, TX, Wisconsin, and Michigan so far from Tennessee
My DX today was FL to OH North and from WV South. Kinda funny, the folks I can normally talk to straight, around 40 miles away couldn't hear me but I could hear them better than ever.

144 where about in Bama are you? I recall faintly hearing a Huntsville AL station calling
I'm closer to Mobile, Al so that's usually what I use for location.
