144 MHz Es on July 29, 2009 - 2009/07/30 10:20 Wow!

That was the biggest Es I've heard since I've licensed as VA2WDQ in 2006! I found 144 MHz opened to W0 at around 18 EST (22 UTC). The first station I've worked at 18:13 EST was N0IRS from EM29  coming with strong and clear signal. The last one QSO with WR0F (EM29) logged at 19:48. Anyway I heard other stations I've worked before until 20:00. That was a great opening! Sometimes MUF dropped down and the 2m band got quiet. But after 10-15 minutes W0,W9,W5 jumped up from noise again.

That Es opening I worked 17 stations:  N0IRS, KC0CFB, WB0NQD, W9RM, KA9CFD, K9AKS, N0PB, N0MST, W6ZI, KD5ZVE, K0CIY, N4LI, N0DIS, W5MRB, KM0T, K5OMC, WR0F

The following grids were worked:

EM25, EM26, EM27,EM29,EM39, EM44, EM55
EN10, EN13,EN22, EN40, EN41,EN52


73!

If I was you, I'd check out this web site http://hamradiotube.com/sm/ from time to time as N0IRS often makes videos on 2 meters openings in his ares. I wouldnt be surprise you would hear yourself on a video he would upload in the next days or weeks.
