Hi all,

And a great advantage of the IC756 series of radios! That little TV display
showing activity on the bands is well worth having.
In the Roundup, I found several stations way above "the masses". On 15m in
particular, there were stations from 21.073 right up to 21.110, but on one
occasion, I found a solitary signal around 21.125. You will often find May
WA1EHK way above "pile" too.
Even on 20m, there were stations well above 14.100.

Sometimes, it just pays to go a little further, although I am not sure that
is a valid comment for 40m!
I heard loads of CW nuts sending QSY QSY QSY in CW on 7030, and even around
7034. I even had one nutcase who was sending THIS IS SSB SECTION PLS QSY
over and over again in RTTY on 7040.  

I wonder what some of them would think if we all decided to play RTTY on 40m
during CQWW CW ??? A shame they can't live and let live!

Very best 73
Phil GU0SUP
