Last night I commented on the great operators from Zaire.  Most 
confusing since that is now the Democratic Republic of the Congo and 
hasn't been worked for several years.

I was referring to the Italian team working 9J2T - Zambia in early 
March.  Very professional operators, kept complete control of his 
frequency and the pileup.  Identified himself every Q, stated his exact 
listening frequency every other Q, 95% of the time had complete call 
signs, never calling for a suffix.  In spite of being the #107 most 
wanted (phone), he worked a single frequency split and kept up a contact 
rate the had to be better than 120.

In addition, I looked at their web page and saw "real time on-line 
logs".  Withing 2 minutes of contact I was able confirm that I was in 
the log.

I was so impressed with this group that I sent them money, and I never 
send anybody money.
