Yep. Had pretty good luck on the 2nd local pass, but not as good on the western pass. I find that the hi-gain vertical type of antennas have a big draw back. When I used my homebrew ground plane (with a 30 degree slop) they work quite well. Really need to get my arrays back up. There is no doubt that some of the interference is intentional. I also thought I heard some basic telemetry mixed in.

In any event, it is an experience!!!

Yep...the 817 works great!

In fact, on the 2120z pass, I worked you with an 817!

What is annoying though, is the amount of QRM. Some of it actually sounds intentional.
