If you're in a location to work Ireland on AO-51, EI7KD, has been
calling CQ on our first afternoon pass here in N.A. several times
lately looking for trans-atlantic contacts. I'd not heard him on
before. He's got a good signal. Give him a try!

Congratulations on your award Paul!
It's always fun to catch you when you're operating portable (2M1EUB)
from some wild location on an island off the Scottish coast and also
to often hear your familiar voice calling on AO-7 passes when you're
comfortable back at home. The rover and solar-powered, station set-up
photos on your QRZ pages are neat.
Looking forward to another QSO soon.

Hi Folks,
My wife and I will be in Orlando for 10 days from the 10th of September.
I'm taking the Arrow and my TH-D7 so when we're not in the parks or Space
Center, I hope that I'll catch you
on one of the birds or one of the many Orlando repeaters.
My thoughts are with my American friends and colleagues for 911.
I was on a training course in SF, 10 years and due to the time difference
across the USA, we
awoke after it had happened and my European family had been watching it
unfold for some time.

Dave, G4DPZ
