Way to go Ed!  That is a great contact, especially at that time of the
morning.  Of course the sun comes up a little later there than it does here.
Good Hunting!

Hi Coy,

I got up late and tuned around the band and didn't hear any JA's but I did 
hear a weak signal on 1822 while listening to the NW.  I finally switched to

the SW and VK9DNX jumped out of the noise.  I worked him at 1313Z 1822/1824.

He was still Q5 here at 1330Z...amazing.

Ed
