The day before yesterday I could receive arecibo in SSB and I received
several reports, CQs and ending transmissions such as "over over".

Yesterday I could receive very clear the CW signal, it was a very steadily
signal.

When they change to JT65 I called to EB4FXD and he told mo how I had to
configure the software.  The sofltware in an old version could decode 100%.
Pedro EB4DKA could receive the signal witn a single CJU and a THF6, so they
encouraged me to try the contact.

I can´t belive my eyes!, I have never tried an EME contact but with only 20
minutes spare to shut off they sent your report !!!!!!!!.
