Bob,  
You certainly do here well.  I suspect this morning was an anomaly and that 
you'll work him very soon.  From my discussion with T32EQ on a higher band, 
he is using 100 watts to a dipole.  I forgot to ask him how high the dipole 
is, but I bet it's way lower than a half wave!  He was at and below my S4 
noise level here until 1249 when I worked him, receiving a 599 and giving him 
a 449.  He continued to call CQ, but no one was calling him when he peaked a 
few minutes later at my sunrise.  I called and said he was now 569, which he 
acknowledged.  My best receiving antenna was a ENE/WSW V-beam, 390' legs and 
50 degrees at apex. K0RF worked him a couple minutes later.  Hopefully, 
others caught him at their sunrise west of here.  Now if I can only find 
South America to complete this season's 160M WAC!
