Yes, I agree! Let's coordinate this. I propose all EU transmit
first, all NA second. I will post about tonight's activity on our NA
600mrg (MF) email list also. Maybe we can get more people in on the fun.
Rik, thanks for monitoring JT9 tonight. It should be very interesting !

Just a thought: if multiple stations at either side of the pond are
participating it might be a good idea to have all Europeans transmitting the
even minute and all Americans the odd minute (or vice versa).

Thanks Mal.
I will be there. I have removed the HF wires and once again have my
full 5 watts EIRP.
Will you be transmitting first or second? I will also CQ during the
2300-0100 time frame but will avoid using the same period as you so
we can find each other.
Let's get some trans-Atlantic QSOs made tonight !

Last night was a test run for me. I had partially, but not completely removed
the HF wires I had put up. This allowed me to run MF but I was initially down
about 2 dB on power because the antenna resistance has increased significantly.
Things got worse during the night for reasons not yet known. Maybe ice.
If the towers are free of ice today I will climb and completely remove the
offending HF wires. If successful in getting things back to normal I will spend
at least two hours calling CQ on JT9 during the prime TA window tonight. QRX
for an update later in the day.
