KN6KNE aeronautical mobile

Posted on by

The day after working Sean aeronautical mobile, I was fortunate to work another aeronautical mobile station, Denny KN6KNE, on 20m SSB.

Denny was aeronautical mobile in a Boeing 737 over Arizona, USA.

This was the 3rd time that I have spoken with Denny whilst he has been in the cockpit.
