TopBand: 5A28 on 160

[Bill Tippett]

        After seeing 160 spots for 5A28 for several days, I finally got
lucky tonight at 0436 just before their sunrise.  They were on 1838.4
working simplex and then later QSX up 1.  Signals were a very solid
559 here and only a few S-units down from some of the stronger Europeans
like G3PQA.  This was a new one for me since I was between NC QTH's when
the first expedition activated 5A on 160 in July 95.  I think they
will be there several more days.  Good luck to all who need them!

                                        73,  Bill  W4ZV

P.S.  Still copying them at 0457 as I write this.  QSL via OE2GRP.
