He is (they are?) on 160 regular as clockwork, according to the 
Webcluster.  Some of the spots were close to his sunrise, which 
should be the best time for the US.

I'm not sure how big the signal is, but he works Europe every night 
in fair numbers.  I'm subject to very heavy QRN, and have not had 
comfortable copy but did manage to make it into the log.

Apart from 160, he has been active enough on the high bands that I've 
wondered about the validity of my original assumption--that he is 
single-op.
