[SEDXC] 6 M DX REPORT

[Mike Greenway]

Things were looking bleak this morning no Eu etc.  N4HU told me he had 
just decoded A45XR  several times.  The all of a sudden I got few 
decodes from 7Z1SJ Saudi Arabia.  I checked and he was working up into 
EU and some AS.  I sent him an email to see if he would turn to NA.   
Some minutes later I saw him calling CQ at -17  apparently beaming to 
NA.. Decoded him about 10 times in a row and called but he never heard 
me..I think he then turned the beam back to AS.  Using PSK Rporter, 
which is one of the better tools that a 6 M DXer can have, I could see 
where he was working and who was hearing him.  DX  Maps set up for 6 M 
only is the second must have for the 6 M DXer.

Later N4HU heard A65BR so we had some prop into the mideast but they 
were busy staying with their antennas more to EU.  Rest of the day a 
bust with a few Caribe and SA.

Average day of a rabid 6 M DXer.  Up at 8 AM eating breakfast at the rig 
to get up to speed on conditions.  Watching until 11:30 for quick 
lunch.  Back until 12:30 and if nothing by then starting chores ie grass 
cutting etc.  Back at 4 for possible 2 nd wave of western EU or the 
beginning of JA.  Watch til 7 and then take off to TV unless JA are 
still in.  There are several rabid 6 M guys //in the I know in the ATL 
area and beyond.    73 Mike K4PI
