I thought I'd check for activity on a late evening FO-29 pass tonight as I
hadn't listened for quite sometime. I heard two 9 land stations who had
the pass entirely to themselves. They were obviously good friends as one of
them indicated his spam filter had probably eaten the other station's
email who had sent pictures. They agreed to go to the Land Line after the pass
indicating they probably lived fairly close to each other. I did wonder
though where everyone else was on tonight's pass. I probably should have
tuned around more and may have missed some other QSO's.
Anyway, it was great hearing CW being utilized. The doppler however kept
me quite busy at that frequency as I'm not using software. Just two ears
and a pencil.
I've got to cobble something together and get on the air soon. Especially
since I know there are some good CW ops such as the two fine gentlemen I
heard tonight.
