[Lf] SAQ

[Frank Gentges]

Hi,

Sandy has been kind enough to forward a sample of his and Hal's reception 
of SAQ for posting on the AMRAD LF web page.  It is pretty impressive 
especially when held up beside the K0BRA attempt.  Their DXpedition seems 
to demonstrate the value of the mountains and low noise.  Anyway, take a 
listen.  More to hear from Sandy and Hal, this is just a teaser.

Also, I have printed out a few QSL cards for those wanting a QSL.  I'll 
have a sample at tacos and next weeks meeting.

Frank
