    It is what it is. Some people find the magic in it, some don't. Life's too short to worry about such trivial things.
    I am surprised at such a sudden deterioration in a woman whose only ailment was a lazy anus.

    No worries. Its music to me...and by the sounds of it, one less station to grapple for space with.

    NO copy in SoCal last night. Think it is a DAYTIME shot only. Might have to take off work for a prayer at working them. Haven't heard anything from our San Diego DX CLub of anyone working them yet. We need to wait till all of the East Coast and Midwest are finished. So this is PAYBACK time for all the Pacific DXpeditions!

    I'm sorry, but I have to LMAO at this one. Are you trying to discourage people from working them?

    Repeat after me - Work First, Worry Later.

    Got them on 3 bands so far - 17 cw, 15 cw and 20 SSB. Mostly insurance QSOs but it's nice to have the challenge points.

    I tried 30m last night but boy oh boy... what a zoo! Even with 3 elements and 200 watts it was just too crazy. At one point they were doing over 20kHz split. I guess they had to because it was worse than CQ world war. I shudder to think what the pileups will be like if/when P5 gets activated.

    In a few days the pileups will thin down.

    However, I like to work DXpeditions on the first day/night for the challenge. But understandably if you have compromise antennas and low power, you may have to QRX a bit.

    Propagation favors the west coast better than europe on some bands at some times. Try after 2100z on 15m. As much as when I hate when they do this, they sometimes also work by the numbers.
