The last day VK9ML was on, I heard them running 20 CW around 1030z then just
plain stop. Did I go grab breakfast? No, I went up to the RTTY band and tuned
around 14.084, where I found them calling CQ about 5-10 minutes later, and was
their first QSO.
Don't get me wrong, I love packet and wouldn't have worked everything I have
without it. However, it's *always* easier when you find them before anyone
else does!
