I don't have an antenna for 80 or 40, I just load into my 160 meter inverted
vee through a tuner, which of course leaves a lot to be desired. I'm just
needing them on any band, any mode. I notice they seem to be operating on
bands that I have a good antenna for in the mornings but I'm at work and can
do nothing about it. I guess I'm faced with trying to snag them this coming
weekend.
The morning Bert and Carmen worked them I could hear them faintly but the
cold weather had my rotator frozen on short path and they worked vu7 via
long path. Just my luck.
