New DXCC (#132) on 144 MHz via EME

fr_dl1rplPeter Kuschke, DL1RPL give us a possibility to get new DXCC country by his trip to Reunion Island. Date op his holiday/operation from 15th of April till 5th of May.  He started EME operation, as FR/DL1RPL,  on 16th of April and I was lucky to make QSO with him at this day.
EME conditions were poor, signal polarity was changed very quick. So, I 4 minutes I have seen his trace from -22 db to -28 db or lost him totally! When he transmitted on on V-polarity, I did not seen trace on my screen at all! After our QSO he informed me in N0UK- chat, that my signal report was -21 db in H-polarity! And it was happened after 2 hours of calling.
But, anyway, thank You, Peter, for new DXCC (#132)!
