A big thank to Xavier, F5TTU, leader of the F6KHM gang and all the members of the radio club, for giving me the opportunity to do my first EME try. With a fantastic equipment, allowing loud and clear echoes with only 1 watt, it was easy to be heard from different parts of the wold with a nominal power. 
For once, and it's probably not usual, the moon were reflecting a YL voice, isn't it SM2CEW?.
Hopefully there will be a second try in the future, why not from home with the come back of F6ETI, but certainly with more modest conditions.
Thousand thanks again Xavier for this first wonderful experience and fantastics fellings, good luck to you and to all the F6KHM gang.
