    I heard him - he's also slowed WAY down. He was running probably 30+ yesterday but today right at or slightly under 20, AND working split! I'm thinking someone reached out to him

    By the last day I'm sure he will be fairly reachable I should think - especially being mid-week with a lot of folks at work

    Just can't catch a break with propogation for GB13Col or TM13Col again this year. Wish I had a better antenna. Then again pileups are brutal to get through....

    Still need 4 of the colonies (A,B,F,H). SSB has been tough the last couple of days on 20 and 40. Having fun so far and even my 6 year old has shown interest when I show her on the map where France is compared to us. She doesn't get my infatuation for a clean sweep. Ha ha!

    F was my toughest and last one to get last year. Seems like it may be tough to sweep this year. 20 and 40 are lousy again today.

    F was my first last year, and my last year before.

    I've tuned to a station I can barley hear and turn the volume up, then when I hear him booming upstairs, I know the band opened!

    I had to leave the house last night when TM13COL was on 3's. Was supposed to be a quick trip down the street. It wasn't. By the time I got back he was on 2's and the propogation was bad.

    Maybe I'll try the turning up the volume thing and leave the shack door open whilst I play with my kiddos outside today....

    Keep it up! Got em all on 100 W and a wire but this late in the event you have to “work” for them! The thrill of the chase! Best of luck and 73- K5UYN

    The last day (today!) will likely be CRUSHING pileups as those desperate to get "the last one I need" will be out in force!

    K2H was on 15 CW this morning. I worked them for the clean sweep at 1707 UTC on 21.030.1. That was about a half hour ago. Saw them reported at about the same time on 15 FT8.

    Good luck! It was fun and still is as I am chasing different modes and bands just for grins...
