Did Mal drop off his chair in amazement??? Bill, you better get cracking at
the patent for that loop design as it obviously kicks a verticals ass hands
down.

Absolutely amazing John.

WD2XES was running DFCW90 last night, 0.5 Hz above VO1NA.

Brian, CT1DRP was posting captures to the web, and managed to snag XES
(faintly) around 0300 UTC. Here's his screen shot:

This was evidently the best signal of the night for XES and VO1NA. I was
only running 75 watts to a loop antenna. The distance appears to be 5123 km.

Thank to Brian for posting the captures, and to Jay, W1VD, for giving me the
URL.
