What is very interesting is guys with simple antennas are printing them that are South of me. That's pretty awesome. Right now sitting here with my feet propped up waiting for a print before I start calling. Much can be learned from watching/listening on Facebook and on the 3y0j's website.

I have never seen such a mix-up of information being given by a multitude of DXers on the FT8 mode system used by 3Y0J and how confused the DXers are on how to call, what sequence, what form of FT8, where and when to call etc.. And then some think they worked the 3Y0 and whether or not a “RRR” is needed, etc. A failure to ‘be clear’ on things before calling even starts… that means the DXers calling and the 3Y0 team knowledge of what’s going on too. Sad ..

When old timers on the silent modes of FT4/FT8 etc are confused on how 3Y0J is to be called and confirmed, then I KNOW the young newcomers to the FT modes are REALLY confused. Right Jay and Earl?? 😊 I have no software to get on FT modes and would not have enough mentality on keeping up with it during situations like with the 3Y0C! HI

73 all and have a great weekend! Guess the FT8WW will be on a couple of upper bands. No more 30m from what I hear.. IIWII
