T33 had a great signal today from when they moved down to 1827 from 30m
(around 0950z I think) and were peaking S7-8 most of the time, with a dip to
S5 for a while around 1030z. No luck for me calling with the multitude on
1908 (with a mere 800w out from the amp) but they were working quite a few
from both coasts. With 10 minutes or so to go till our sunrise, they started
listening up 5, and worked some more East Coast there. With still a few
minutes to go till my sunrise, they suddenly were GONE! Did their signal
plummet that fast? Did their antenna plunge into the sea? Didn't see any
spots indicating they had QSY'd to another band. Anyone know what happened?
And will they be back tomorrow? Any news appreciated.
