[ADXA] Spratly Island DX0NE

[Dennis Tune]

 When I was transmitting, I had some Phillipino stations hearing me -10 on PSK Reporter and they were less than 100 miles away...Maybe the noise at his station is a problem...Otherwise, you'd figure he'd work a few NA's in as he went instead of just one or two here and there...Maybe things will improve over the next few days...

The DX Summit fans are beating up the DX0NE op pretty badly.  Everyone expects to be served by the rare DX station!  I operated from Guam/KH2 in the early 70s.  There are a lot of JA Hams and from what I have read Gil, 4F2KWT, has pretty high noise level at his site.  The only decodes he’s seeing on 20M FT8 may be JAs and other nearby Asian stations?  I did see him work a few NA stations around 15-16Z….right before he faded into the noise here.  He may be trying to work down the JA pile…on Guam it was very intense.   

  

It’s a ATNO for me…..glad Gil is there.  I’ll keep plugging away!

They are on 20m FT8 with a great signal @ 14090 with 2 streams at -3...But only working JA's...No luck so far...
