    Congratulations on working the FT5ZM.   Called him all afternoon on 20m 
cw with no luck, lots of qrmers finally work them on 20m ssb at midnight 
first call.  Hope it wasn't a pirate hi.  He was on 14.185 listening .191 
not many callers.
    Good luck to everyone that needs them,  he is new one for me since 
moving stateside.  Worked them in 1989 but wasn't stateside.

I worked FT5ZM early this morning on 20CW, but it was very chaotic and I 
wasn't sure I got in his log, so I tried on 20CW tonight at nearly midnight 
on 20CW and got a solid contact with just a few calls. They had not uploaded 
their log to clublog tonight, so I really wasn't sure about the morning 
contact. I really worked at 20CW this morning and the qrm and jammers were 
fierce. Not so tonight. Also I banged away all day on 30 and 40m with no 
success. I used 30 degrees, but as someone said, any direction is SP/LP. 
Kind of like at the north pole, every direction is south. hi
