A blast from the past - video of a QSO (EI2KC and WA3SCM) from almost 13 years ago!

It's not often you get sent a video you've never seen of a QSO that you had almost 13 years ago! But that's what happened the other day when one of my ham friends, Don EI6IL, sent me a video he recorded in his shack of a QSO that I made with Dave WA3SCM in Pennsylvania in September of 2012. 


It's a short video, and looking back in my computerised log (I use Logger32 for logging), I see that Dave was the last QSO of the day, in what were challenging band conditions. At the time, I was using a two-element hexbeam, an antenna that was later destroyed by a storm.

Don was listening to our QSO on his Yaesu FT2000 at the time. If I remember correctly, my own radio at that time back in 2012 was the Yaesu FT1000MP.
