Wow!
I write these few lines in total excitement, as the shack is filled by the
harsh sound of AO40's beacon, booming down three solid S points over the
noise and IZ8BLY's software decodes steady. Range is over 52,000 km and squint
is 27...

What's so exciting about this? It's MY FIRST TIME, first trial, immediate
success - I cannot believe it myself. I simply can't wait another two weeks
to have my first qso!
What a fantastic ham life! :)
