Hrmm, guess we didn't.

We on for this Wednesday?  I'll suggest we go 7.2875, 7.2555,  and 7.2955 like we tried before, 0100 Zulu.

I'm in, fingers crossed for propagation.  Backup on a different band?

That's the best kind of vacation. 8)

ghrit, you're way up north, right?  Why don't we work on 40 meters for the first 15 minutes, then all switch to 20 meters for another 15 minutes.  Then we can sort out what happened later, here on the forum.

Yes, northeast PA.  Will go as you suggest.  For 20M, I suggest starting on 14.250, then 14.350, then 14.450 at say 5 min intervals.

0100 zulu is 2100 EST, IIRC.  Good to go.

AR1944 blew yesterday.  Wonder if it will help or hinder us.  BIG CME en route.

OK, to put the time/frequency list out there:

0100  7.2875
0105  7.2555
0110  7.2955

1015  14.250
1020  14.350
1025  14.450

See y'all in 35 minutes.

So.  Your favorite dummy (that would be me, the noob) strikes again. 

1)The local time I put out was off the DST chart, not EST, so Q1 was spot on.  Woke up to that at about 2007 local, and spun the dial, thinking I'd already blown it.
2)I failed to check the allowed freqs for General, and the two higher freqs I put out are either at the limit or off the 20M range.  Embarrassing at best.

Anyway, I heard someone on 7.2955 at about 2010 local, but apparently couldn't be heard when I answered.

I guess I'm unwilling to give up on the whole idea, but it's going to take some more thinking.  At this stage, I have heard something/someone out there two or three times on 40M (nothing at all on 20M), but haven't been heard responding.  I'm willing to have another whack at it, but seems like we have to come up with a better idea.

73s all around.

Hey man, I'll be calling on 14.240 @ 0200Z, then 14.340 @0205Z.  Don't give up yet!

If I can get out of work on time, and I remember,  I'll be on.  Need to try out the g5rv.
