Well, I just got the XR0, 7P8, 5X3C,T88XH, 5V7EI and C91AHV, ALL 6 on 2m EME.. That was a chore for sure, just got lucky I guess. Then I awakened from my hour nap after a big lunch.
So, back to looking on 1.8mc for 4 of them for ATNOs. About as much chance as 2m EME! I did put up my 40m sloper that had blown down in the 55MPH winds yesterday and oriented it from NE to E, hoping to get thru to XR0ZRC who has been solid 559-599 here but he has trouble coping thru his QRN. One QSO per minute tells you something. Can’t get to SSE since my house steep roof is in the way... Vertical lost all its elevated radials, all 3 of them. HI

Its been a long dry (OK very wet but dry in DX terms) winter with
literally no serious DX. Now, all of a sudden we have four big
DXPeditions on the air.........BUT ALAS!!!!! There are now FIVE, yes 1,
2, 3, 4, 5 as one I was not aware of, 5V7EI Togo, fired up today and
they are being spotted. Look at QRZ.com or their website:
https://5v7ei.com/
Wow, DX is unbelievable. Long lonely months of boredom interspersed with
brief, intense moments of excitement! For this moment in time, DX is
like Santa Claus - ITS EVERYWHERE!!!!!!
Enjoy, because in a few weeks this will all be over, spring and summer
will be in play and there won't be poop on the air until fall.
Oh wait.....3Y0I says they're going to Bouvet.......sometime!
Some of you need this one, you know what to do. Some of you don't need
this one so get out of the recliner, put down the pie, get in a pile up
and growl. Show some teeth!
