    "content": "Hey all,\n\nI'm currently on my laptop at a wifi hotspot in the bustling metropolis \nof Mena, Arkansas, so please excuse my brevity and any grammatical errors.\n\nYesterday at 1812UTC I made a scheduled contact with Manuel, EA5TT, \nusing AO-7 Mode B, from the old US Forest Service Fire Tower on top of \n'Rich Mountain' here in extreme western Arkansas. My 10 digit grid \nlocator was EM24UQ01MU while Manuel is located in IM99SL48CX, in \nValencia, Spain. Using the http://no.nonsense.ee/qth/map.html website \nfor reference, this equates to 7947.381km which we believe to be a new \nrecord for AO-7 Mode B.\n\nLike several of my extreme low elevation passes I've worked recently, I \ncaptured my side of the QSO on video. The bad news is that the wind on \ntop of the tower, and limited room to operate meant a noisy audio feed \nand a rather awkward camera angle, the good news is our callsign, grid, \nand signal exchange was captured and clear. I have trimmed down the \nvideo to just the 70 seconds or so (to expedite the rural upload) of the \ncontact and posted it to Youtube here:\n\nhttps://youtu.be/JvbT1PqEHlI\n\nI fully plan on writing a more extensive post when I return from the \nholiday weekend, and I will likely make a proper video with commentary \nand data as well. I've made some really interesting observations when it \ncomes to Satellite operating from places with great 'Height Above \nAverage Terrain' and look forward to sharing this analysis with everyone.\n\nUntil then, catch you all on the birds, 73!\n\n-Dave, KG5CCI/P\n\n\nOn 9/6/2015 1:36 PM, John Papay wrote:\n> From the OPDX Bulletin 1230 September 7, 2015:\n>\n> BIRD DISTANCE RECORD!
