[ADXA] ZL7G Update 11-1-16

[Joel Harrison]

Here is the latest report (11-1-16) from the ZL7G gang on Chatham Island:

We have just passed the 17,000 QSO mark after four days, despite the dire
HF conditions. But today we saw a distinct improvement, with 20m showing
good form into Europe in our evening. We hope this will continue. We now
have our first QSOs with Western Europe on 160m, including two into the
British Isles. We are looking for more!  We start 160 each day before our
sunset and continue to after our dawn. Despite requests to be on at other
times ( ! ) there is simply no propagation outside these hours. Please see
the link on our propagation page for sunset/sunrise times.

RTTY operation will start in the next two days, but we have not yet
decided on which band. This will depend on if and how conditions settle.
