They were calling him on the 2 meter SSB net tonight, no answer. That was probably after you saw him moving back down the hill.

Dave's very narrow window of opportunity in the grid corners allowed only a handful of successful QSOs on the two AO-51 passes this evening. The pile-ups were overwhelming! Dave did a fabulous job despite the bedlam. Thanks Dave!

And a thanks from here as well! I worked him this morning on a western VO-52 pass, and he was saying at that point it was difficult. Thanks for making the trip up there.

I worked Dave this morning @ 1552Z on an AO-7 pass. Weak, but readable. Looking at his tracker now, it appears he's heading back down to his vehicle. Thanks also from me, Dave, for backpacking to that grid intersection.
