    D64K was spotted on 14026 but seems like NO ONE is listening
    to HIS call, which as you say is D3AA.
    Sounds like a FEEDING FRENZY !

    I finally got them on 20 and 17 both CW. I spent some serious time in the pileups though...for roughly the one hour a day I could HEAR them anyway!!
    Funny, I worked them on 20 at 2329 on the 17th and on 17 at 2228 on the 18th.

    I wore my voice out Friday on 17 SSB for what seemed like hours. After taking my wifoid to dinner that evening, I found them still on 18.140, and was in their log after one call. Go figure.

    My attempts on CW on 17 have been frustrating. I can hear D64K just fine, but cannot find any of the stations they respond to. I have yet to even hear them on 20, usually my money band.

    I don't spend much time chasing around. Usually I just pick a place to park and keep calling. I have not heard them as well on 20 as I have on 17, or for as long.
    SSB seems pretty hopeless to me, just too weak of a signal on SSB.

    Real easy on 20m CW this afternoon.

    Better hurry up gang.
    I believe they are done tomorrow (Aug 20th)

    I'm up to 9, should be 10, but my
    17m PH Q isn't showing up in their log.

    I'd like to think that it's the snazzy new call that got me through the pileups on first try, but really there just weren't too many callers on 20m or 30m CW this evening, and the guy on 20m SSB seemed lonely and a little bored due to a lack of customers.

    Listened to them (or tried to) and very weak on 20 CW here in the south. Upper midwest can hear them but barely a peep here...may be prop, may be their antenna direction, but regardless, they were weak all weekend I tuned around to them...

    By now they should be beginning to pack up their tents for the trip home.
    All in all, this was a good one.
    9 Q's in all.

    3 phone
    3 cw
    3 rtty

    Hope they have a safe trip home.
