Thanks for the FT8 connection on 30m. My wire antenna and 90 watts came through. I gave up the Superbowl game to check out 30m and didn't even know where you were. Thanks again!

Hello Kamal. It has been a lot of fun working you on FT8. My friends and I really enjoy chasing your signal on the bands. We all hope to work you on 40 meters soon on your beautiful Quad antenna. 73 and I hope you enjoy these great conditions. W9PDS patrick @ skerrett.net

Hello Kamal and Happy New Year! I heard your fb signal the day but unfortunately was not able to make (FT8) contact. Maybe another day my friend. I've been a ham for over 65 years with many breaks from the hobby but just recently decided to chase a dxcc.. I have over 3500 qsl cards I'm sure would do the trick but decided to do it the hard way. Hope to add to my QSL list. I thoughly enjoyed your QRZ bio as well the the website. 73 and Blessings to and your lovely family. Dick Hilde

Your new website is very nice, Kamal. Nice to follow up our earlier 30m QSO with a 20m FT8 QSO today. Surprisingly good propagatgion today, with excellent signals. You were solid at R+00 here on FT8. The station here is an Icom 7610, KPA-500 Amp, and wire antenna thru a tuner. Your barefoot 756Pro3 and SteppIR beam are doing a great job into NA.

Just visited this webpage of Kamal. Mail logbook contains 10 different QSOs on bands (10-30m HF bands) and modes (CW SSB FT8 FT4) with You. I like Your active work and have respect your antenna projects. I have visited Sri Lanka years ago, but not searched especially HAMs. The hospitality of people was excellent and country amazing. Probably visit again this paradise of indian ocean next time. Surely will include visit of Your QTH and family.. Cheers !
