WA4FFW and I had suggested to Chuck last night to please listen
at north america sunrises on 3773. He did come up like clockwork
this morning (Oct 21), marginal signals but workable. At our
sunrise in Arizona he was doing perfectly well. What Chuck and
the pileup did NOT need was a particularly irritating list-NCO
type imitating WA4JTK trying to orchestrate the whole thing.
Whoever it was ended up interfering with many of Chuck's
transmissions back to the States. After a few of us complained
about it directly, the QRM went away and Chuck continued just
fine. He later QSY's to 3798 and many got in the logs.
By the way, many thanks go to Terry W7KW for being able to arrange
some special antennas for Chuck given such short notice.
