I was going crazy as well trying to figure out his run pattern. I never 
could and was just moving wildly about then finally saw him work a 
station up about 15 KHz so I skooshed up a tad (that's a technical term 
here in White County). to 14042.5 and nailed him. I believe right after 
my Q was when he said QRX and QSY to FT8. He had a booming sig at the 
time and it was building, and could have work a bunch more on 20 CW.
