[W4sc]

Lashed together a temp az-el setup  this AM.. all manual,,,calibrted 
azimuth by Sun,,,,,Heard them on SSB about 3-3/4-4... K1FO 25el and "deaf" 
IC-910, no pre-amp,.  They must have big signal...After they went to CW 
called seveal times with 75W. just in case I got lucky.  They were 559/569 
on cw (ssb b/w) about 80% of the time...Windy here blowing antenna around a 
little.  need more antenna, and pre amp,,,better rx, and QRG

Loads of fun
