He was begging even for QSO #2 yesterday.  Until he got spotted...
then all heck broke loose.  QSO #3 quickly appeared and then
the band got noisy very quickly.

Seems fewer and fewer people tune for DX anymore; they just buy
bigger amps and taller antennas, and wait for a cluster spot, so
they can go compete with 2000 other people who also wait for the
same cluster spot.

Every DXpedition that N6TQS is in, count on RTTY activation
within hours of SSB or CW activation.  Go work that CW you needed
and then start scanning the RTTY subbands.  RTTY ain't no frill
mode for our Doug!

Anyone else notice Mario, S56A is also in the K1B team?  I heard him
having fun at the 15m CW chair yesterday.  K1B is as close to Parody
Island as we can get, HI HI.
