Congrats on the new band country! They did have a good signal last night on
20, called for a while with no luck.

I have K1B on 40-10 all three modes so haven't been chasing them much, as I
just need them on 160 (no chance with my antenna), 80 (not much of a chance
with my antenna), 60 (don't know if they are doing this band or not), and 6
(not much chance with prop).  I would like 1 CW QSO for the new prefix on
CW.  I am on the WPX honor roll for CW, which might be the only honor roll
I ever make.
