@sota while operating on Round Butte yesterday we could hear WJ7WJ on Mt Sylvania in the Portland area. Hard path to get the QSO, especially with all the 2m activity that was going on in our respective valleys. #SOTA #SummitsOnTheAir #HamRadio #2m #vhfsimplex
@tsherrygeo @sota bouncing off of Mt. Hood? On the PNW 2m (SSB) net ops point at Rainier and can make contacts Seattle to Portland even if the path isn't there otherwise.
@k5em @sota yeah there was a good chance that's what was going on.
@tsherrygeo @k5em @sota Knife-edge effect, two jumps, one about 29 mi and the other one around 53 mi, I guess. Nice path!
