My station at Grid CM97oj was 410 miles away on my bearing of 105.8 deg Magnetic.
We completed contact on Voice 7.210 LSB with the following stations heard:
KI6QBM, AG6RS, W8KO, AG6HQ (in Big Bear Lake area), and with KN7ML who was in Saratoga Springs Utah 517 miles away at bearing 51.8 deg Magnetic.
Digital Contacts on 7.072 USB Contessa 4/125:
W8KO
CW contact was not possible, fading conditions.
Awesome!!!

OK. Can't make this afternoon. Will be there tomorrow.
I cannot make the Friday noon schedule but I will be on Friday at 17:00 and try you then. Saturday at noon the NorCal group will contact you at noon per schedule.
Hoping W6FJC, KJ6SCF, W6ZYC and myself KC6RUF can reach you.
Friday 11/10/17 and Saturday 11/11/17
12:00pm--Voice on 7.210. If busy listen up the band. I will be calling for check-ins to the "Landops Net".
12:30pm--Consestia Mode 4/125 on 7.072. Look for us in the waterfall. I will be transmitting "CQ Landops de W8KO".
1:00pm--CW on 7.114. If busy listen up the band. I will be transmitting "CQ Landops de W8KO".
If you are within a couple hundred miles of our position this is the best time of day for NVIS and you will have the best luck using a horizontal antenna. If you are over 3-400 miles than a vertical or horizontal should work well.
Sounds great. Standing by...
