I had a good time yesterday on the air. It was one of those days that I ended up having QSOs on every radio that I own. While I was working some 20m FT8, I saw a spot on the DX cluster showing Grenada. I had never worked Grenada before so I finished my FT8 QSO, and tuned over to the extra class phone portion of the band. I had some pretty heavy QRM, but I was able to copy J32FIFA pretty well. 59 in fact. I turned on my amplifier and I listened for a few minutes. I heard him call "J32FIFA QRZ listening up 2", I set the split frequency, and I called. After only 2 calls, he returned and gave me a 59 report as well. I'm always glad to work a new country and special event stations!
