Excellent conditions to the pacific region this AM.
At 1045 Tom w8ji was in qso with kh2/k4sxt.  When Tom signed
a VK called Gus, then I worked Gus, then vk3io.  
Gus had fantastic sigs.  559 with only a bit of qsb. 
First vo/zone 27 on 160 qso that I'm aware of. 

Still chasing  XZ1N, but nil last night.  Heard him the 
previous 3 nights on 1805.5 peaking and fading quickly
around 2345Z.  Did he change his tx qrg to 1808.5?  1805.5
has an irritating and raspy carrier.
