[SEDXC] 7O, XW2A, A51

[thompson@mindspring.com]

I worked the 7O1YGF on 18Mhz SSB yesterday...has anyone heard them on 24Mhz
SSB?   That's the last band I need except for 160.

The black hole to SE Asia still exists.  XW2A was on 21331 at 1800Z and
reported loud in W1 and 2 but just a whisper here.  He QSyed to 12 meters
but the band was not open.   A W0 called him but  did not hear anything
either.   He showed on 18 CW but I don't
need him there.

Has Bob K4UEE left for A51?   My propagation program does not output a file
and the print is DOS screen print.  I tried all sorts of schemes to print
the nice graph but the program needs the DOS graphics command and on all my
PC's this does not exist.  I can get the tabular report to print.    I did
run the report for SF 180 and 200 for 5 May 2000.   At 200 there is a peak
MUF that reaches 30Mhz but in all cases there is no chance on 160 and 80
although 40 looks great.    I need on 17, 12 and 40.

I will print out the band possibilities based on 180 and 200 SF sometime
before the Dxpedition.   If anyone has the sunrise/sunset times that would
be nice too.
