Good thing those Skywarn guys have been practicing.
Doggone it, no wonder I haven't been able to QSO with ZAUGMBLOTE, lately. He's being covered up with QRN ! ! !

Turn your beam the other way. I just worked Beldar on Remulak. The pile up isn't too bad and he's running full power (700 GW) which helps a lot.

It's further evidence of the Butterfly Effect described in chaos theory.
Haven't worked any butterflies, lately, either ! http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif
