High line noise here but worked him fairly easily on 20 meters.


Congrats!

Likewise here (except no line noise!) on 17 CW.

Much to my surprise, the lids weren't out either. A brief burst of
someone asking three times whether the 3Y transmit frequency was in use
(and being answered "YES!!!" each time by half the planet) but that was
about it. Almost nobody calling out of turn. Pretty amazing.
Difference between this and the pile on the 6O last week? No idea.
Just because it was 17m? Doesn't seem likely but you never know...

Needed for alltime new one here. Will try to catch them for additional
band-countries (and hopefully on RTTY at some point) but won't be
beating my head against the wall to do it.

Signal seems MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better than the last Peter I expedition.
