I worked T32C at 1am EDT last night/this morning (0500z). A simple inverted L with 16 radials 62.5 long. They could hear me a lot better than I could them (me at 1kw) but I answered their CQ. They didn't have many takers. 

I have yet to hear 3D2R on 160 when spotted. Worked them easily on 80m. 

tnx
