Worked a previous Ducie Island operation and sent for qsls. Cards came
and my 12M CW qso marked NIL... Manager said he found KA2DZS not BZS in
the log.
Wow! the op sent BZS and now I'm not in the log.. Emailed the manager
and he said he would send a qsl with KA2DZS logged on it. I explained
that KA2DZS was a Novice class op who's callsign expired in 1995 but to
no avail.. Sure wish they had an online log, I would have tried to work
'em again on 12CW..
Sure was a pleasure to work this operation on 12CW and 10 thru 160 and
RTTY and see my callsign in the log for real. Just one dit did me in
the first operation
Here is the best one yet.. I saw on the cluster VP6DX on 17RTTY 17.110
QSX down but had no copy on my screen at all. I did see T32YC calling
CQ QSX down 1 and called him about ten times before he faded into the
noise with no luck... Half hour later VP6DX is chatting with a W5 who is
apparently related to the operator.
After they sign off VP6DX sends qrz up. I go up 5 and call and he sends
back "KA2BZS we worked before QRZ" Wow, I worked the guy and he didn't
even tell me what time ;-) He must have picked me out down trying to
work the T3 station. Managed to work VP6DX 2 days later after sending
"First qso I know of"
Was in the online log the next morning though...
Isn't this a fun hobby?? 73/DX.. Ron .
