Gots to get some radials out on the antenna! Listened to Brazil (PT7ZT [1]) and if I heard it right, Armenia (EK something something something) on the 20 meter band tonight. Couldn’t do a damn diggity about powering through the pileups around the Brazil station because the antenna isn’t properly counterbalanced with ground radials.
The best I’ve gotten so far is Georgia (as in Atlanta) although it wasn’t a proper QSO since I was only checking into a net. Still looking to make that first real contact on HF and getting an awesome QSL card for my troubles.
