Yes Jim I know that sometimes is difficoult to
listen the stations working the dx but for that
rare case we must use instinct, know-how to find
where to call. I have already saw several cases when the
dx is working stations 5 or even more then 5 kcs up
and we could see others calling 1/2 kcs up, calling
and calling after each qso. Best regards
