Ron K0IDT,
Your team ran a good operation NE. No issues at all but for some reason (I may
be in an antenna null) I cannot work the W1AW/0 (SD) station on 17 meter RTTY.
No problem on other bands and modes. I parked up (3 and even 4 (where is did
not hear stations calling) but it seemed like a waste of time. The SD station
on 17 meters RTTY is very loud and easy to print but seems deaf.
