Rwanda confirmed.

9X5RU  confirmed a year to the day after I worked them.

I'm not impressed with the RUDXT.

The other thing that does not impress me is the 6 months after we'll download LOtW free but act now and cough up $X and we'll do it now.

Yeah, I know. DXpeditions cost money but when you look at the sponsorships and yada yada yada it looks like they're doing it for profit.

I don't mind the $3 for postage but when you Google around and see postage is $1.50 and they want $5 that's bullshit.

Over the years I've been pretty generous to the point where the bureau cards I get that ask me for a card I simply mail direct.

Fair is fair.

Yeah. For quite q while I thought I had two Greek QSOs and then found out one was Dodecanese and a separate entity.

75 or so. I never max out the amp, it doesn't make that much of a difference.

Still nothing on my end, i think the recent storms knocked more things around on the power lines around here. My noise floor is just crazy. Or maybe the construction people down the road are running generators I can hear, who knows.
Link Posted: 4/17/2024 5:04:14 PM EDT

Well, let's hope the situation gets resolved for you soon. I'm fortunate to have a very low noise floor here. My IC-7300's scope shows no noise. I usually don't see noise here until I get as low as 40M. 40M is always noisy for me.

Supposedly on 18.092 now. (I don't copy them there.)

He was gone within a few minutes of me getting him, so I was very fortunate. I don't know if he faded or went QRX. I had him at a -01 when I got him.

By the way, I happened to see you get TT8XX at 00:17 on the same frequency.

Just got 3G0YA on 14.241 when he was listening on .253.  Sometimes he listens 5 up, but then occasionally he'll say 253. I was there waiting for him. Most were still at +5.

Good deal!

I have him on 15M and the other guy on 17M. I was hoping to add 20M around 00:00 UTC last night, but never could copy him. Lots of people on the East Coast could though.

FINALLY got Chad in the log and when I checked his real time log I wasn't in it so back into the fray and got lucky. Three or four tries. This time I added /P and made damned sure he didn't bust that one.

That particular DX group is obviously in it for a buck.

On top of that the Italian mail service is terrible.
