After spending 4 hours hunting Skeeters I figured I might as well kill the day hunting Pigs. Things were fine until the SST guys drove me up the band but I did work 2 of them. Thanks to pigggies WB0CJB, KA2KGP, N2TNN, KM4JEG, KC3RN, WB9HFK and AB9CA for the contacts. Heard K9QEW but my squeal too weak for him to copy.
KA2KGP, Tom, 5 fpqso=7 fpdxqso=0 nonfpqso=2 spc=7 total=161
No oinkers heard in the 20 or 80 meter pigpens, only 40 m. was heard here in WNY. Too many SST's on the band with lot's-o-QRM covering piggie grunts & squeal's. Let's put our pig-heads together & figure out how to deal with SST QRM. 72 to all us piggies. OO
N2TNN, Dean, 4w fpqso=4 fpdxqso=0 nonfpqso=3 spc=6 total=90
WB9HFK, AA2YO, KA2KGP and KM4JEG regulars and 3 strays jumped in.Too bad the SST took over 40m. Things were looking good tonight. 72, Dean
WB9HFK, Mark, 5W fpqso=5 fpdxqso=0 nonfpqso=0 spc=5 total=75
Thanks to N2TNN for my only 20M QSO! Thanks to WB0CJB, WD9EGW, KA2KGP and AA2YO for my 40M QSO's! I pulled the plug about 0015Z as activity seemed to have died. 72, Mark WB9HFK oo
WB0CJB, Paul, 5W fpqso=4 fpdxqso=0 nonfpqso=1 spc=4 total=52
The bands were pretty noisy but was able to corral piggies AA2YO, KA2KGP, WB9HFK, K9QEW and non-member W0OJW. The last hour was much quieter, but the SST bunch moved in next to me.
I'm looking forward to the fall and much quieter bands. 72 es OO Paul WB0CJB

First 3 QSOs using my Homebrew rockbound "Funmitter" switched
to ICOM 7300 due to QRN/QSB issues. Looking forward to better
conditions this Fall. 72/73s Daryl

my 1st run as a piglet. bands did not seem happy. only heard wb0cjb paul on 7.0411 but his ears were not big enough to hear my squeal. i'll learn how to root in the noise
