Give me one QSO with TO4E and I'll be happy.

319 was the best I could hear them so far.


Really? I'd have thought it would be an easier path from Europe than
from here.

Worked 'em 579 on 15m Tuesday noon USA time. (roughly 1800z)

That's what I thought, too. As a matter of fact, I spent quite some time
chasing them, only missing few of their times of activity. That's the
disadvantage of only running a vertical for all bands. No chance on 80 with
that tiny stick, bad SWR on 30m and 20m seems to be their most disliked
band, since I haven't heard them there at all.

#303 still waiting to be worked ;-)

There's a remote exploit it in the free market, whereby you can boot the
price of something by talking crap. It was reported to Bugtraq yesterday,
and I'd post a link to bugzilla.nyse.ftc.gov, but they don't allow links
from slashdot. -- http://www.petitiononline.com/nosco/petition.html

The DX gods smiled upon me. Heard them calling CQ on 30m and caught them on
the first call.
