Today, I turned the radio on for about five minutes to check my SWR's on all three antennas. I heard France and we chatted on 10 meters. Then I had the chills in the shack and shut down. It appears that that I have a bad cold. At least I had one good DX contact today. This was about 12:30 pm EST. There will be more days.

That sounds like a fun contact. I would have watched a videogate if you posted one.

How do I do the video gate? I guess I use my phone and take a video, send it to my email and then down load it to my pc but I am lost from there. Is there a time limit or data restriction that an email can handle? I must have missed something on this site.
