Nice day today: new DXCC via Moon Bounce on 144 Mhz. 9K2YM, Yaser, makes me happy! As he said, today was his first day on EME after 10 years brake.
His signal was very changeable all the time! From -25db to -30 db and sometimes disappears totally. During our QSO, which we completed at 14:27 utc, the best was -26 db.
No screen shoot of this QSO: I simply forgot to make one.

Because after QSO immediately moved to 432 MHz for another great event: short DX-pedition to Rhode Island (RI) – is a very rare state and grid for “lunatics” US state. By the way, RI is only state, which I need for my WAS Award 2M band.
Call sign AA1KK from grid FN41DP. Probably, very good setup, because their signal reached -14 dB on 432.096. As far, as I know, they have 4x25FO and good power. QSO was easy and quick. They reported -13 for me. So, new grid and new state on 70 cm.
