[Mldxcc] DX Spot: VK0EK 7.016 down

[Rick WA6NHC]

They were on 30 RTTY, just barely hearing them now but right at the 
noise floor so no steady copy...  I see others still working them... 
just beyond my antenna hearing them.  Slow QSB so I tried to time my 
calls, duh...

So I'd plan on 30 in the morning for sure, if one needs that slot, and 
20 anytime they're posted on any cluster (as a spot, not a comment)...

I'd look hard at 40 in the morning too, they were as loud there tonight 
as I've ever heard them, so the bands are recovering VERY quickly this time.

They will go QRT at 2200 THEIR time MONDAY... so there is still a couple 
days of getting in there (along with the weekend crowds).
