What time did you hear the JX last night. I listened on and off until about
ten and never heard them. We had a lot of QRN in the area but all I could
hear is the pileup on top of him. I need JX for a new one.

Hi Froggy,
CONGRATS on the JX on CW. Very nice!
I'm betting one of the bands is 30M. I worked both of the guys there in
mid-afternoon on two successive days. Both were running EU at the time, but
open to anybody. They were also weak on my beam. Then, last evening, I
heard the Brit on a 30M dipole and he was strong with a huge NA pile.
Next guess is 20M. I have tried to hear them on 20M, but they were too weak
here.
Would like to hear them on 40M.
Go for Christmas! Good luck.
