Hi Lanny,
Since we are sharing, attached is my VK0MT QSL card from 17 years ago. Nice card. If I remember right all I had was just a ground mounted vertical in Fort Smith. I was working a lot of hours back then and so I didn’t go after band/modes. Just super glad to get them in the log for an ATNO.
It was super neat to see you beat me out last night! I was beginning to wonder if I was going to get them. One never knows and the pileup was one of biggest I have seen on the Bandscope!
Great job!!

What a difference in reports just a few minutes later!
It was a new digital for me. I worked VK0GC thirty-five years ago on 20M SSB.

Lanny,
That is a good-en! I got a +10 and he was +06 on me @ 05:58 UTC about 8 minutes after I saw your RR73. It seem to take forever! Ton’s of callers and the bandscope was full! The last time, well the only time I worked Macquarie Island was back in 2005. Funny it was also on Digital>>>> PSK-31. I got the QSL card for that one.
Says he will be on SSB as well, but didn’t say anything about CW, so I guess that is a no go. Hopefully he will be a lot, but looks like he is down there working. Plans on uploading at the end of the month and on Clublog. That is very cool!
I was heading to bed and decided to check around the bands starting on 6m and ended up on 20. Glad I had a look, but will loose a few hours of sleep.
