The VK9XG gang is also in full swing from Christmas Island. The island
is infamous for their "red crab". DX News has a nice photo of some of
the "herd" here:

The ops are a first class group from England who know what they're doing
so, "Some of you need this one.....GET ON THE AIR AND WORK THEM!!"
I need them on 160. It is past time for me to get my 160 meter RX
antennas out. The person who cuts hay on my place decided not to do a
second cutting since he filled up his barn in the spring. Unfortunately
he drug this out and didn't let me know until this week. I spent
yesterday afternoon on the tractor mowing the fields so today's project
is to start getting all the RX antennas back up which will take about 4
days total for the entire assortment.
What are you still haven't you finished for an antenna project?? Chief
Meteorologist Knucklehead Ned Perme at Channel 7 in Little Rock says its
going to be sunny all weekend with cool WX so get out and finish that
last antenna project. There is a ton of DX that has now fired up.
AND.................remember next weekend is the CQWW DX Phone contest!!
Bernie, W3UR, will be publishing a list of special DX calls and stations
who will be on the air this coming week so get ready NOW....
