Any ever work DX via meteor scatter on 11 meters??
I've worked stations as close as 300 miles to me and as far 2000 miles. With multiple burns a QSO can last 10-15 minutes.There is a big meteor shower in July, I'm not sure of the exact date, but I plan to be on the band. I 'll be calling as 837 Upstate New York. If you hear me give a shout.
I'll be QSL'ing for 2-way or reception reports to PO Box 904, Corning NY 14830.I would like to see how a sporiadic E band opening would effect conditions during a meteor shower. Does anyone know what this would do for conditions??

Endicott is out of my ground wave range.Sometimes I'll go mobile on one of the hills around to see where I can talk to. I've worked stations in Owego so I could probably talk to to you.Were you at the Owego hamfest last month?
I guess I forgot to mention in the first post that I'll be calling CQ on or around 27.575 LSB/USB
