[SEDXC] Praise for the 40m CW op [DX-IS] K5D observations

[Robert Carroll]

If there are any of you who don't know VE1DX, he is a legend in his own
time.  We should be really proud of what he said about the K5D cw ops.  I
can tell you whoever was on 80m cw tonight was no slouch, either.  I
listened a long time to him as well as 40m and 160m-amazing.

Congratulations, Mark! These guys are indeed a class act, and 
they have on CW operator that seems to have the operation prowess Don 
Miller reportedly had. On 40 tonight he was listening to the pileup 
for 10 seconds and then pealing off 2-3 calls and reports at 30+ WPM, 
repeatedly. Seemed to be hauling the calls out from memory after 
just that 10 second listen. How he could keep all that straight and 
log at the same time is beyond comprehension! An operator like that 
comes along once every 10-20 years at most.

The pileups I've listen to have been well behaved also. Given 
the rarity of KP5, especially in EU and AS, there has been very 
little jamming, etc. This one, if it continues as it is, is going to 
challenge the VP6DX record for the best DXpedition ever.

The way this is going, one can expect a KP1 operation soon. Who 
would have thought? That's how this stuff works. BS7H was 
considered impossible and it happened. These two were off the air 
for 15 years or so, and it looks like that has ended. Don't write 
off 7O or P5 either. When we least expect it, something will change 
and they'll come on. They always do!

73, Paul VE1DX
