"Perhaps we could turn the tables and organize a DXpedition where we
do a backside-kickin' job on 160/80/40m, but only show up on the higher
bands for a couple QSOs at the wrong times, and only stay there long enough
to get spotted on the clusters before we QRT.....

Jim... count me in as a CW op on that expedition... got LOTS of vacation I
never get to take

Have tried for only a few minutes to work K7K (don't have them as a country
yet).... big mob on 40 CW,  tried a while then realized I had to get to
work... looked on 160, there they were (about 1125 Z Monday)... very few lids
(although spomebody was trying out the DIT side of his keyer directly on
frequency)

Second call on 160 worked.... getting to like this band !!! A low band
DXpedition sound like fun, but it may suck some of the lids onto topband
