Yes, they were on 160m from approximately 1100z to 1200z. The 30m RTTY op went QRX. About 10 minutes later they showed up on 1826.5. Very weak signal with long and deep QSB. Definitely needed the K3 NR. The LP-PAN helped to determine who was calling. Mostly 9's and 0's getting in the log at

The Elecraft rigs sound great (of course, I’m a bit biased)… I worked them on 21285 SSB a short time ago. They are presently very readable here in Northern

I just worked them on both 12 and 15 meters with the first call at just after 0200Z. They don't seem to be inundated right now. Signal was actually better on 12 meters, but pretty decent on both bands! I don't see them spotted on 17, 20, or higher right now. Dave W7AQK
