A sign of good #hamradio things to come

Today was a great day. Or at least a better day in hamradio than I usually have




For the 1st time in this Solar Cycle (and most likely the last 2 solar
cycles) I managed to make at least one SSB HF contact on 10, 15, 20, 40 and
80 meters in a single afternoon.




. Being a PopGun in the DX world it was amazing to think that I was
hearing stations calling CQ and I was getting them all on the first call.




Some were POTA, others were School Roundups and a few were just stations calling CQ because the bands were open. There were 2 dx stations as well. Either way it was a heck of a good day




Sometimes its the small things in life that give the most pleasure.
Hopefully in a year from now I will be commenting on how I contacted all 6 continents in an afternoon or something equally as spirit raising
