Geeeeze, now I know why DN00 and 01 are rare grids! There literally isn't anything out there, certainly no local RFI or traffic. It took 7 hours of driving round trip for 7 minutes of satellite time.hum 60 to 1, guess that ain't bad. Anyway, thanks to all who stuck it out through some QRM and congestion to make contact. Simply confirm the contact via e-mail and your cards will be in the mail, no SASE or QSLs required on this end.
