Thursday was the charm as I got them in my log ( and theirs) on 40-30-80-160 cw. Nice to see their almost instantaneous log confirming qso's and eliminating the need to work them 2-3-4-5 times to be sure. Nifty! They are new DXCC entities on both 80 and 160 for me.
Its hard to track their tendencies but going to their Clublog website once I discovered it made things much easier. Still, the first few days I couldnt keep up with their listening freq gyrations because I often couldnt hear the stations they were working through the QRN. Things improved Thursday and that made a big diff. For 160 cw, their sigs begin to peak around 0430z here in central Ohio. QRN is still running high so that peak makes all the difference. Their SR is around 0518z. Sometimes they QSY from cw around 0500z. Was surprised to see how many qsos theyve made. Nice job S9OK ops! Note their tear down begins two days before they go QRT. So we have another week or so to work them. Great to have a dxpedition back on the air. This was my first new ne on TB since Covid began. _________________ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector
