Especially when the station worked is "Mr. Low Band" himself! This morning on 20 meter CW I was running my KX3 (driving the KPA500 at about 190 watts to a doublet) when I ran across John, ON4UN calling CQ. He was running his K3 and an amp at about a KW into a five element yagi. Nice strong signals both directions.
In case you aren't familiar with the call, ON4UN is the author of the widely read ARRL book "Low Band DXing".
Sorry for the bandwidth, but after having read the book several times and using parts of it as a guide for my own 80 and 160 meter setup, it was a pleasant surprise to run into him on the air!
