Ray, I heard you solid, 589, with some QSB, but never faint. I didn't reply because I was going back and forth to 145.825 to see if the packet was operational (it was not). I did not hear the reported QRM from packet bursts over that pass (Pacific, SoCal, & Baja). 73, Jerry, K5OE
---- original message ----- I heard myself calling CQ for about 2 minutes, peaking 569, but no takers that I could hear. Then, about 2 minutes later, I heard AA5PK calling CQ, about the same strength, but I could no longer hear myself.
It's a challenge!
