Okay, bunch there. Victor Alpha Six, Romeo Victor. Bob, we've got you on the list. Victor Alpha Seven, November Romeo Charlie. I always think National Research Council. Brendan, we have you on the list. Victor Echo Four, November Oscar Lima Nolan, you are on the list. And Victor Alpha Seven, Mike Oscar Victor. Dragos, you are on the list. Up first, Victor Echo Four Echo Lima Bravo. Jorge, welcome to the net. I'm just using the hobby, enjoying it. I'm looking forward for my... Thank you very much. Thanks Jorge, and congratulations on getting into the hobby. I'm sure you'll have no trouble getting your advanced and so on. But welcome to this hobby and great about that six meter contact with an antenna you built. Thanks for joining us. Victor Alpha Seven, Mike Oscar Victor. Dragos, welcome to the net. Greetings. So I guess the answer to the question at hand, what's the longest contact? Well, I used to be about a kilometer away from Adrian, but at 100 meters and one there, I believed using a Hammett up SDR to feed the frequency up converter and a Hack RF, a one watt ping from 18,000 kilometers away in Madagascar on whisper on 20 meters. But that was when I was at 100 meters of elevation and I recently moved down to 25 meters of elevation and put up a 60 meter and set dipole in a tree and about the best I've gotten with my 7300 and 100 watts is over to Japan in 8,000 kilometers away and Germany, I believe that was about 10,000 kilometers. I think that was also on 20 meters all of those. So Victor Alpha Seven, Mike Oscar Victor, VA7MOV. All right, well those are all great. Especially 60 meters, no one's mentioned that band yet. Yeah, great stuff, especially that whisper contact. It's amazing what we can do with so little power. Thanks for joining us. Last I heard Adrian was putting up a tower. I was wondering if we hear from him today. Victor Echo Four November Oscar Lima Nolan, you're up next. What's the furthest you've managed to reach?
