Not much luck tonight -- Randy, WB8ART, and I almost made it but I don't think he ever heard my RRR message.  He was as strong as +01 but faded down to -18 and then disappeared entirely.  I am guessing he just couldn't hear me.

I heard one CQ each from KT8O in EN71 and KD8JQ in EN91, but nothing more.

Happy to try again tomorrow night.  Also wondering if morning might be worth a try?

73,
John
