First HF contact to Hawaii

[TXiceman]

Just got off the air with KH6RC on 14.313 Mhz. He was on a 3 element Yagi and 1000 watts. My little Butternut 9 band vertical and 100 watt Kenwood was making it into there easily.

Come on Solar activity....

KE5DFR,

Congratulations on the contact. I haven't made Hawaii yet, but the home location is outside of Cleveland, Ohio.

I've talked to European hams several times, and its always a thrill for me.

Hope to hear you on the air sometime.

Good Luck

I could barely hear a Romanian station this afternoon on 20M. The east coast stations were working him pretty good. I could not make it to him with all of the east coast pile up.

I've talked with a station 400km east of Moscow and a couple of station in England, and several in South America.

Heys good work. It is always a thrill to work DX when you snag a new one.

You should be able to work the Ducie Island Expedition. This is their last day of operation, but should be workable on 15, 18 and 20 meters.
