I worked N8S at 1010z today.....they were on 1827, QSX up 1. They were 
having trouble copying me -- took a couple of repeats till they got my 
call OK. I was using single-wire 280-degree Beverage about 750-feet long.

No. 293 and fourth new one since July 1.

Was hearing DU9/N0NM briefly about 1030z today -- about 10 minutes 
before my SR -- but then he dropped out. Jon was on 1822.3, QSX up 2, to 
avoid the N8S pileup. Direct path on the 320-degree broadside phased 
Beverages (935-feet long, spaced 175 feet).

Did I mention I still haven't worked DU?
