We have been trying many weeks to have a simple QSO, with several near misses. At 2120Z via AO-7 I got a, "you are 5/1 here". At 7504 km not a record, but a real fun effort. Next is Eric-PA1TNO, I may have to go portable on a nearby mountain.

Congratulations Bob! Success is sweet and I see you have already found a new mountain to conquer, hihi.

Congratulations Bob and Paul!
This is an outstanding accomplishement - regardless of any record - and yet another example of why so many of us think so much of Grand Old AO-7.
