[ADXA] PJ7K - 3540.0

[k5ur at aol.com]

Is 1 to 2 up fairly common? I was meagerly trying to get them on 20m this afternoon and I got the impression they were 7 up (which I thought was uncommon)..

 Jon, up 1-2 iscommon, but when a pileup gets really big, the operator will spread out and listen higher. 
Today on 17 meters, for example, the PJ7 had a huge pileup and was listening up 1 to 10 kc. He tended to pick calls up 5-7 kc up and at times would move up to work the edge up 10 kc to spreadthings out, and then work back down a bit. Like EJ said, you will get proficientat listening for the pattern following the last one worked.
Stay with it!

73,

Rick – K5UR

I got another question for dx chaser, when they are working receiving up whatever the range, how can they hear more than 1 at a time?
I was able to get T30TTT, the other night split, and their signal was weak enough the radio was only decoding about 30% so I had to do my own homework between the ears in real-time. Forward progress!
Just the new guy here!
