[Mldxcc] VP8SGI 7.023.1 up

[Rick WA6NHC]

It's likely late for most of you, but they're getting really loud on the 
west coast, and he's ripping right along at about 35 WPM... Slot 14 for 
here (20 phone was 13).  30 meters is wide open too, plenty loud there 
and NOT busy.

Absolutely NOTHING on 160 tonight, spots indicated some paths to EU and 
not a lot more.  K was 0 and A 14.  The ten meter opening today lasted 
about 30 seconds here and it was wimpy.

It's official, Sunday is our last chance, perhaps a few hours into 
Monday... I want ten and 160 for the band sweep!  Maybe I should short 
the window line and use everything as a T antenna...  nah, the RFI is 
bad enough already, the shack is 3 stories up, no ground...

If you can, be generous in any donation to this team.  It was expensive, 
it was exciting to watch (dangerous for them) and TWO entities in one 
trip.  Then if you consider the effort they've made; what a great team 
and trip.

All things being equal, I think I'd rather have been in Palmyra [RTTY up 
oom poppa mow mow; caller up oom poppa mow] where at least it's warm.
