[RTTY] Best time for W1 to FT5XO

Jim, their signal was easy to copy along the Mass border with NY at about 7 
am this morning on 20.  I was copying long path.  I caught them on sideband 
at 7:09 am and figured they might move to RTTY soon and when they did, I was 
ready. Got them simplex on 14087 at 7:26 am just before they went split--and 
before they began transmitting in reverse.  Pure luck, I guess, but then my 
pure living deserves its rewards.

Before that, their CW sig on 10104 at 9:32 pm made an easy catch when I 
transmitted up one.

So there is a chance for our area if the pattern holds and they do a repeat 
on RTTY Tuesday morning. Or if they would just do RTTY on 30 meters tonight. 
Good luck.

Ed, W1MAG
