Of course its a very long way from Cocos to Senegal and 6W is in
daylight! 

VK9C and VK9X have always been very challenging from Arkansas. Since its
night time there my guess is they don't have any 20 meter prop and are
utilizing the night time for low bands to other parts of the world. 

Unfortunately this time of year they're dark when we're light and vice
versa so it doesn't give us much of chance except on low bands. 

I would love to work them on 160 but I don't see it in the cards for
this trip. We just don't have enuf common darkness. We have a gray line
but that is it and its not producing a path, direct or skewed. From the
closest stations I've seen them work to the west so far we need about
another 30 minutes of darkness to create even a slim path.
