Subject: TX3A pirate
If you worked TX3A on RTTY on 14 Nov between 0400 through 0700 or so,
it was a pirate. I have confirmed via the pilot station that they were
not on the air. They sure fooled me, because the beam heading and
frequency were correct he acted exactly like TX3A, even telling some
they were dupes. I bet he worked a hundred or more, mostly JA with some
scattered NA and Europe. At least we know ahead of time so we can work
the real one. Go gettim

I would wait to check the logs or send it in anyway. Just because the
pilot
station says they weren't active there then doesn't mean a lot.
Remember the tremendous cunfusion surronding the 1A0KM operation back in
the
early 90's? Their initial published operation schedule showed a very
limited
operation and only a couple operators. They showed up on a lot of bands at
once and a lot of people thought most of them were pirates. It turned out
the operation was more extensive than originally published and all those
QSO's were good.
Probably any further discussions should be on the DX-chat list.

IN this case the pilot is well informed.
But check their weblog to be sure.
A very impressive operation, indeed !!

TX3A is uploading to LOTW almost daily. If you are a member, upload
your logs to LOTW and you can see if you made it.
All my qso's are already in LOTW.
