Well Jeff, you just made my day happier hearing your CDX call on channel 16...with that still familiar happy voice. Earlier I heard some local 19 AM bleedover, but never heard any DX or SB working until you started calling.

I was working a new version of the A99, (13" shorter than the Old Original Solarcon and with no added power), all on a 10' foot mast that is right-up beside the South side of my house. I'm sure this setup is not working as good as I would expect, but I was hearing you just fine Jeff...at S9 peaks thru an S5 noise floor at the time.

Tell Moleculo hello and God Bless all you guys on WorldwideDX.

It was great talking to you Eddie, I had called CQ earlier without hearing anyone call back.
I went to the market and picked up some things for the house and I heard you call.
I instantly knew that voice no matter how much AM heterodyne was piling up in my receiver.
For a antron 10 feet off the ground you sounded like a DX station running stacked beams, yes sir.
Mother nature can make a simple antenna work like the best antenna ever built.
I will continue to listen for you guys out there as the cycle get better.
All the best!
