    So far, NO SPOTS WHATSOEVER from Stateside. Only JA and EU.

    CORRECTION, some States were worked around 2200 on 20CW

    Honestly, every VU expedition I have ever heard has always been marginal and usually a poorly run expedition....IMHO and from my personal experience....haven't tried for this one yet....

    why are you saying its poorly run ???

    The said it was going to be a low key, low power simple expedition, its not T32C or HK0NA and the never said there aim was 200k QSO's and 24 stations QRV around the clock.

    Its a few VU's activating some lighthouse that happens to be a Rare DXCC and IOTA.

    The bands are in the crapper as the summer doldrums have not cleared which will make any long distance DX hard work nevermind one running 40w in to a low dipole

    Our DXers in SDG reported East Coast was working them on 17SSB at about 2100 today. NO HOPE for West Coast. But SOME East Coasters are in the log. Maybe someone will go there when we have SUNSPOTS again someday, (If I live that long!). Looks like this Cycle is a BUST!
