Club evening at the Veron Centrum Radio ...
Club evening at the Veron Centrum Radio Club and I walked into the radio shack and heard W1AW calling CQ on the 12meter band from New York. It was pure coincidence the radio was tuned to that frequency and I don't know who tuned it or left it in SSB mode. I checked DXHeat DX-Cluster but did not see W1AW spotted at that frequency. I should register at DXHeat so I could have posted my spot. The reception of W1AW was mostly ok, sometimes fading a bit. I answered the CQ using the club callsign PI4UTR. The W1AW callsign is doing a tour of the US states at the moment as the ARRL centennial qso party. It was fun to be a small part of this. The New York part is organized from W1AW/2 Operating Event Calendar - Rochester DX Association.
