K5L rocking the bayou on SO-50
Great work this AM from Clayton, W5PFG, out in a fishing boat in EL58. I posted audio of the pass at https://www.dropbox.com/s/50oiuitjarjws0v/K5L%20SO-50%201508Z%2026May2016.mp 3?dl=0

I'd like to second that, Clayton has put on a clinic this morning as to how to activate a ultra-rare grid. Well done sir!

I counted 27 QSOs made on that pass of SO-50. That's an incredible job. Most were relatively disciplined and it made for an orderly pass given that EL58 is likely the third rarest grid of the 488 continental US grids.
He has two more passes of FO-29 and one more pass of SO-50 to go today if you didn't get it yet.

K5L continued to rock it on the last SO-50 and FO-29 pass. One last FO-29 pass for everyone looking for K5L in EL58 - at around 19:12 UTC. The pass covers pretty much all of North America.

WOW!! I would call that an amazing achievement, having only just learned how brief even good passes can be ! It gives me something to aspire to.
