There were quite a few DLs on 40 as well, with the WAG contest going on. I started listening around 0600 UTC. ZL7C (quite strong in the northwest) was working only EU for quite a while (the operator did allow one PY to make contact). After listening for what seemed like forever, he began working non-EU stations and I was able to jump in around 0715. Since they have another week there, it shouldn't be too hard to get them if propagation holds up.
