I wanted to pass along a comment that I received.

Hi Bill,

It's been a while since I sent a note. I just wanted to highlight

something that happened today when I was trying to work J51A.

I know at least a couple of your podcasts Joe had mentioned a story when the operator had called out a specific frequency. Joe jumped up there and worked him on the first try which emphasized the need to listen closely.

I was able to work J51A on 15m and then jumped down to work them on 20m. I was probably trying for about an hour or so. The operator called out 281 instead of up 5-15. I was reading something on a webpage, so I missed it but then about another 10 minutes later he called out 279.

I hopped up and he came right back with a 5/9 report on my first try.

73,

Tim / N9PN
