Did you hear him say my call a couple minutes ago?  I think I did, but he's weak with QSB here.  We'll see if I show up in the log...

I did not, I was having radio trouble until I set up my KX3.  After about an hour of fighting the pileup, I finally got him.

Congrats, I'm in the log from yesterday too!  I also had radio trouble and had to restore my Flex configuration from a backup before I could work him.  All time new one and my first contact of the year.

He's on 10115 right now and my 30M dipole is acting up again.  There's a bad connection in a trap and I need to take it down to repair.  Switched to my fan vertical with a tuner but it's not near as good as the dipole up high.  No contact before work this morning.

So far, I haven't been able to hear them.  I know I'll never hear them on SSB, but even CW has been a bust.

Ya gotta watch the DX spots, they tend to jump around a bit.

Yeah, I see them spotted, and can see/hear the pile up.  But I just can't hear the station.

I have spent about 30 hours chasing them and have yet to make a contact. The path to the midwest has been poor to say the least.

7P8C - Lesotho DXpedition again on 30M CW - 10.110 - Up. Worked them @ 10.114.90. Good signal into WV.

Good thing, cause I can't hear them on any other band. Took me about 20 minutes of calling & I almost blew it. He answered me & I thought, hey wait a second, that last one sounded just like my call! Luckily he sent my call again & I wasn't day dreaming.

**Update: Checked log today -  Qapla' ! **

And now at 28.459.9



I am certain they are working .1 down from what is being posted on the cluster. It not only sounds better, but I don't wait in line when I call there.
