Just talked to 8Q7DV guys and they confirmed that their LOW band CW
activity was very limited these days. They don't want to do a lot of CW
before CW contest so they mainly stay on PHONE.
These are the dates/times when they operated on 160 with just 80 QSOs in
the log:
23 nov 22:28 z - 22:59 z
24 nov 00:23 z - 00:27 z
25 nov 19:00 z - just few QSOs
25 nov 20:25 z - 20:55 z
Only 15 QSOs were logged on 80 m, so there is NO need to explane that
bunch of us worked a PIRATE as well.
The PIRATE has his own style of operation - he never QSX UP and never
gives the QSL route while real 8Q7DV frequently repeats UA9CI as a
manager and QSX UP.
