Redbugs around here too.  In fact, the Fordyce, Arkansas HS mascot is "redbugs" (home of Bear Bryant)

Hey Dennis, you mean "redbugs," right?  Or maybe AR is not that southern but that's what we called them (chiggers) in North Florida.  :)))))

I got about a hundred of them on me sitting on a stump in a dove field my senior year in high school.  About 6th period, chemistry class, they would all come alive.  My teacher threw me out of class for the reason you can imagine and told me not to come back until they were gone.

All three of my early AM contacts showed up - 80 and 40 FT8 and 30M CW.  Also, 15 CW from yesterday.  

I’m debating myself about whether to fight the ticks and chiggers and hook up the 160M inverted-L.  It would be nice to get a sweep of all the bands below 6M.

Updated log.  I’m in it on 80, F/H, no SF.

BTW, Bernie says team will do F/H when conditions are bad as they were early this morning.

They are only doing one long update a day so far, usually around 6 or 7 PM and sometimes it is an hour so behind getting all of the updates from the different stations.

 

I don’t expect another update until tonight.

Log not updated.  No deal breaker for me.  I will check after the 22 match today.

I worked them on 160 meters last night and they were in SuperFox mode. Last night was the first night on 160 so they have not yet updated their log and stats.

 

160 was horribly noisy last night and I could hear their signal several sequences before it would decode, so I’m not so sure SF is good under noisy condx.

Interesting.  He was not running SF.  And, his stats in club log include nothing on 80 or 160.  I was wondering about that too.  But, WFWL.  Band was very noisy and the signal was very weak.  I'm not sure how well SF works in noisy band conditions.  I just happened to wake up and took a look at my screen and saw him spotted so I worked him in about five minutes and went back to bed.  He wasn't working very many stations.  We'll see.

Thanks Joel.

It is my understanding that CY9C is running “SUPERFox” so don’t you get that little note of “CY9C Verified” that was written into the latest version that confirms it is the real station you are working??

Well, I may have worked the same "pirate" at 0649.  Why do you think he was a pirate?
