I am as they say "Receiving antenna challenged" on topband.  I have no
special RX antenna and just a simple inverted-L to transmit on.  While I
have tried to listen for FT5XO in recent days last night was the first time
I was able to copy them well enough to make the contact.  They peaked at
this location Q5 at around 0120z and stayed that way for 10 - 15 mins.
