The most DX POTA contacts we've EVER had!! As a solar storm approached, we jumped on 10m at lunchtime and it was AMAZING. The first 8 contacts were all DX from different countries, and we also got long distance US contacts. We were camping at Joe Wheeler and used our Icom 7300 to an EFHW on the POTA20 mast. Using 30w, ham radio and morse code reached all over the globe!!
