Heard you work them this morning on 80cw. . .  FT5ZM was running an
incredible 20 over nine earlier (on the 40m DE Zepp at 75 feet) down to S-8
when you worked them.  Much weaker yesterday morning  an hour earlier for
my own QSO with 200w, maybe 4th call.

I overslept a bit and didn't get down to the shack until maybe 0215Z I
think they quit 160 at 0230. . . peaking at S-3 on the Beverage, invisible
on the vertical.

Later FT5ZM was on 30m, S-8 working mostly Eu plus lucky N6WM.   No luck
for me, but earlier easily worked FR5ZL for a new 30m country, #203 on 30m.
