Doesn't help when 5 stations just keep yelling their call & never stop long enough to listen, friggin idiots! ETA: Now QRT |

It's brutal with lots of lightning static QRN and other stuff, but I think I got him on 40 CW just now! Will know for sure after they get caught up on ClubLog or LOTW uploads. He's still on 7001 right now. I've got him and ZD9ZS on all bands except 60 and 80 if this is verified. |

2nd Edit - Just worked them on 24906 within 5 minutes!!!

They are out there a ways, and 17 tonight was really tough with my trap dipole at about 26'. They were on 30 Meters this morning and sounded great, but the pile-up was insane and I finally had to head to work. They just did an upload to ClubLog, and everything I've worked so far is confirmed.

Anxiously awaiting the same thing. I have been too busy to get on the radio until today. So I want to get as many bands as I can today. |

Not a peep on any band since they started operating |

I've got 10m, 12m and 15m. I will keep going until I have every band I can hear them on. At least I have 10m and 12m taken care of. Those are the ones I always stress about. You never know if the sun is going to cooperate with those. |

I'll try 80 if I can hear them there, but I haven't even seen them spotted there yet. I had to set my alarm clock both Sat & Sun like it was a work day to get 20, 30, and 40 this weekend. If I didn't do that I'd be trying to make a contact before work each day next week.
ETA: 10 and 12 were the toughest for me too. |

Each morning seems a bit easier since they've been on for while now. You should be able to get right through on whatever band they're on unless there happens to be a bunch of JA's calling. That happened to me on 30. |

TA3AX on 10115.9 with a super signal.
Thought I'd share this from his QRZ page: It´s a matter of fact - CW is more than a medicine for the grey cells , it even will keeps you away from other Drugs - because CW itself is the ultimate healthiest Drug. . . .
And to be honest , I have never heard from REAL CW -MAN´s who was in trouble with Dr. Alzheimer. . . do not hesitate , come on and tantalize your brain. . Hi. . .Hi Play that Music Instrument as much as possible ! ! Copied From Mike OE5MSM (thanks Mike ) |

They were on 3526 this morning but I couldn't hear them. The lowest noise level I saw was S5 and it was mostly QRN crashes up to S9. I did see the pile-up calling well though. I think that I have no chance at 80 unless I get my Hi-Z RX array back up, which I may be able to do at the end of this week. On a positive note, I heard YB4IR/8 really well on 7024 this morning! Called for a while but couldn't break through the pile-up and had to leave for work. |
