They were on top band tonight but really weak at best. I heard them better on the inverted L than the beverage which is really weird. They didn't start calling until around 2330Z.

The ditter was a pita.

Well, it's academic for tonight because the only signals on frequency
I've heard all night were the buzzards throwing out carriers & the
occasional dits so to let us know they're there, waiting.

Band condx or local issues there keeping them off 160 it seems.

Gary,

I know I worked them on 40 SSB last night, and I do not appear in the log.
  So, I checked about a dozen other guys in the spots for 40 SSB last night
who supposedly worked them after I did.  None of them appear in the log
either.  Methinks there are some bands missing in today's upload!

Rats, back in the chase, must have been a slim. Just checked clublogs
FT5ZM log and the 160M Q didn't show up but my 17M contact an hour &
a half later did. I know I heard them come back to me so it must have
been a slim but geez with the signals like they were, it sure sounded
like their signal.

Ugh...

Fingers crossed it wasn't a slim I worked. The signals were in & out
but for 4-5 minutes I could hear them clearly. Time'll tell.

If I did get him it was greatly because the kiddies weren't playing
so hard today.
