[OKDXA] Heard Island

[John Geiger]

What time were they coming in well on 40m LP?  I am still trying to figure
out if my QSO at 0508Z was long path or short path.  Looking at a
sunrise/sunset map on-line, Heard is in complete sunset on either path.
Since Heard is close to our Antipode it is possible that some skew path was
also involved.
