That was RS-12 Bob. I remember it well, trying the OTH contact's into the bird on the 15m u/l. I remember calling "CQ CQ RS12 LISTENING ON 10 METERS", and still having JA'S call me back direct, just to get the HF contact on 15m. Great fun. Radio Sport indeed....

For those who recall back in the day of RS-13 I think, was mode K.  15M up and 10M down.  It provided some very interesting over the horizon contacts when we had good sun spots.
