Comments:

Drake R4C/T4XC + Henry 8k Ultra (the very first time used)
Ant: 3 ele noreflector wirebeam fix west @ 27m

S/Ping most of the time (21 hrs on), unaware that with Henry8 and 3 ele
running
CQs would not be a sin. Finally decided to start CQing, and was spotted just
ONCE on the cluster (reported by 5B4AGD).

As zone 24 was desperately needed, I was hoping that some BY will come on my
call. And, there he is - BY0S?? sending his call in poor CW, but loud and
clear. After several requests for suffix only, it turned out that this OM
was
actually sending "DE" as "B", and then his regular YO7 callsign - having me
copied BY0 something... and my Cinderella vanished.

Surprised to hear loud ZD8A and VQ9IO in the afternoon. From YT6A, they are
just across the sea
