I've yet to hear them.  VK0/H is still Unheard Island...

Not a single real NA spot from 1030 to 1330Z this morning.  Using 30 meters was a good idea but I looked at 20 meter spots and decided 20 meters was not used even though this is where most DXers work.  Wonder why a station was not put on 20 (split between CW and SSB) to maximize the ATNO's.

Past Dxpeditions came thru here very well on 20 and I remember VK0HI was 20 over. He was so loud that I passed him over a couple of minutes thinking he was a ZS. In my listening the strongest signals from VK0EK were on 40 (both CW and SSB) and 20. They were 589 on 14.034 CW and close to S9 on 14190. I know working band/modes is popular but not sticking on 20 to maximize ATNO's means they are missing many of the deserving.

Just my two cents worth.
