7P8AA was a good RST55-79 signal this morning at around 2300Z on 1.827,
listening on their own frequency, and was pleased to work them for a new
one.  When the frequency gets busy, they seem to listen 1 or 2 KHz up.

The present operating pattern seems to be to work 80m until around 2300Z,
then make the QSY to 160m.  I heard on the grapevine yesterday that when
the pile-ups on 80m decline in a few days time, the group will start
earlier on 160m.

Good luck to all who need 7P8AA.

Vy 73,
