Thanks for the qso Bill. This early morning I worked Bill(OM3BD) on AO-7 at a distance of over 7800kms. Don't miss the chance to get Slovakia in the logbook if your in the U.S.
GOOD DX!

I am back in Slovakia, grid locator JN88mf this summer and qrv AO-7. Any North American stations in range who did not catch me last year, please try again, email me for skeds. It seems that the orbits have somehow shifted and my windows to North America are a bit longer this year, and from my hill I can hear the bird to -2 degrees.
Unfortunately, they are building houses below me on the west side of the hill, so this will probably be my last year with a clear view to the horizon.
