I suspect that he has a rec problem or high noise floor.
both contacts I have the signal reports indicate that one is -5 for him -14 for me
the other is -7  -13

Same experience here Steve... not that much power though.  Either very selective of Numb.  May have decode problems.  If I was home I might shoot him off an email and ask for a sched.  You would think after calling CQ for so long he might see that there is something wrong.

I have tried to work him for three days, different bands, he is selective as to he works or deaf.  He was calling CQ over and over, strong signal, I was hitting him with KW and yagi along with everyone else.  Just kept calling CQ.

Keep trying. I worked and worked him on 12m the other day and he had a +20 signal at times. Nada.

 

Came back on the first call today. He didn’t look terribly busy.

 

Glad you are able to get the air, Rory!

I tried to work him "remote" this afternoon but no answer.  I may have already worked him on 17.

Just now on 18.100. He was a +27. Gave me a -12. Third band. Missed him on 12m the other day.
