I first worked them on 160 on 2/8 @1201Z. Very marginal so tried again with a
sure QSO @1222Z. Went to 80 and worked them @1404Z. This one didn't show when
it should have in Clublog, so worked them again on 2/9 @1134Z. I went to 40 and
worked them @1154Z. Again, not sure they got "WS", maybe "WH" so I just worked
them again @1222Z. Listened on 160 and hear CQ and spotted them first @1229Z.
As I write this ~1250Z, they are 579.
Of course, none of this should be happening because I'm using an 55-foot
inverted-L with 20 radials for TX and RX on 160 and a 45-foot high inverted-vee
on 80 and 40 and everyone know these won't work:-)

Antenna here is a bent wire vertical with 60 radials and an SAL-30.
As expected they were coming in from due west anywhere from 549-579 an hour before my
sunrise until a little after my sunrise. I called and called for an hour with
no contact, while they were working mostly EU and some Asia.
