Hello All, 

I was quite surprised today to work Neil, ES6DO in Estonia just before 18:00Z 
on AO-7 mode B. I was listening to that pass with the hopes of working a few UK 
stations I heard a few days ago, and was just about to shut the rig down at the 
end of the pass, when I heard a CW station calling CQ. At first I though it was 
an Irish station with an EI prefix, but two dits turned out to be three - ES 
rather than EI! With less than one minute to make the contact on that pass, it 
all worked out with a new grid and new DX in my log, and Neil's first VE QSO. 
Many thanks Neil!
