Hi San,

No worries I knew what you meant to say.  I was printing the D60EA on both 15m and 17m FT8, but they were fading in and out.  I have sort of moved on from D60, but will continue to try if I have the chance.  At this point just a silly game to fill band/mode slots, hi.

 

Back to the TY0RU bunch, apparently they know how to use multi-stream and are great CW ops!  Both allowed me and Kathy to get in the log on several bands fast! 

 

I am not sure why the D60 bunch are only doing only one Q at a time on FT8?  Maybe they are getting ready to go home??  The were working a lot of JA’s on 17m.  Maybe they have their beam that way is why I didn’t print them out so well?

 

Well I can blame not getting them as much on FT8 on the grandkids, hi.  😊

Sorry, Jay, I was referring to the D60AE operation and not your “heading” of TY0RU.. My error. My last paragraph sorta shows the  D60 chase I am referring to.

Jay:

I have been watching the Razorback game for 3 hours, but even long before noon, I have been monitoring for RTTY on 24 or 18mc but NIL. Looking at spots every 5-10 minutes on two sites, “watching” for RTTY streaming on the two bands I need ‘em on… tune around “just in case”.. nil since propagation has been good to middle NA for last few hours.

 

It appears the team is only on the FT modes this last 36 hours before they close down on those two bands I need on RTTY. Oh well, I chased and am giving up to finish watching the Razorback game as they are about to win their 4th game!!  Did the best I could to “chase, chase” as Joel says. It’s been fun, mainly working a place I had been years ago and bringing back memories of all sorts of two trips there. Nice people and good food!

 

So, Jay…go get another band/mode if you can. Appears you only beat me by 6-7 spots due to the silent FT modes.. 😊  No problem, it’s a hobby, right and not a business failure. 👍😄 I will lnot be chasing the Russian ventures to Africa, fortunately don’t need them, so now it’s time for me to rest since the D60AE started.. but I do still call my friend Didier at TX7G when I hear him.

73 “Jay”man, hope Kathy is still chasing the D60 a bit.. Who cooks when she is chasing DX? Hmmm
