In a couple of weeks we hope to move to Saturdays at 8PM eastern time

That's a little better, but hadn't you oughta start even LATER owing to the
fact that you are essentially on the 40M amateur band which doesn't "open
up" until well after sundown?


Yes, we were hoping for the later time slot at the beginning but
another programmer beat us to it. If this turns out to be crappy in
the long term we'll try and move it later in the evening.


I gots a PC shortwave card in my 'puter, and if I rekky member, I hope to
monitor you. But propagation has been so LOUSY lately.


Yes 2100 is okay for the east coast but hit and miss for elsewhere. It
should slowly improve over the next few weeks unless the sun belches
and farts. It got as far as Missouri last weekend.


Hay, do you think you could manage LSB instead of AM?

How many watts are you anyhow?


50,000 watts into a super-fab antenna that beams from Monticello,
Maine, towards Mexico City.
