Wenty Bethune is the distinctive voice of Jamaica
and another DX catch usually found buried under a mountain of
loud Europeans with no manners. But he kindly
agreed to try the email dating game. And once again, it worked first time.
As well as avoiding the usual pile up
shenanigans, we managed a proper conversation.
VOA has been a tad pessimistic lately- but we got the job done....
I was again waiting ready to pounce, and we made it
first time. This is such a better way to work DX - and make
100W go a long way - literally. We continued the QSO on Whatsap
in case Wenty's call sign and distinctive voice were spotted,
and another frenzy followed.
... band conditions were not great, but we
had no real problems making first contact..
