Topband: 9N on Topband

[Joe Subich, W8IK]

My neighbor here in Geneva posted the following to the Florida 
Contest Group and "dx-news" reflectors.  Note the comment about 
at least trying 160 if/when he hears something.  

I haven't checked the sunrise/sunset charts but if there is a 
chance, make some noise at sunrise 9N time and who knows what 
might happen.

Subject: [DXR] 10 M. Contest 9N7UD


Hello DXers ... I made over 1110 QSOs in the 10 Meter Contest with my 
call 9N7UD ... Great runs, but I could not be on for full time, sri.
Mostly SSB, so will enter as Phone only and submit CW log for check log.  
I held 28.495 for over eight hours on my Sunday daylight.

Made 31 QSOs on 80 m CW yesterday/today (!) and am trying to call any 
time I hear sigs on 80 CW and 160CW and 40 CW.  If I hear no sigs. 
I go to another band.  I try at 3.505, 1.830, and 7.008 plus or 
minus the remarkably large amount of non-ham sigs on the ham bands 
over here.

I can not make any skeds due to work and duties... but I do wake at 
dawn and try then most days --- local time, of course.

Delivered lots of gear to Nepali hams... all smiles!!!  Full report 
later.  

73, 9N7UD  and K4VUD
