[OKDXA] VP8PJ

[Jeff Martin]

Hi Gary,
 I've worked them on 20 FT8 and 30 CW. Signals are surprisingly poor
overall. The VDA antennas don't seem to be cutting the mustard... Best sigs
have been on 30 meters. Heard them this evening on 40 CW and FT8 for a
couple hours and they quit. Good sigs on 40, they just haven't been on much.
Daytime prop on 20, 17, 15 all pretty poor so far... This one looks like
it's going to be a lot harder to work than I expected... Hearing them right
now on 3.523 working mostly Europeans. Just barely out of the noise on 80,
not really loud enough to call with my dipole... Good luck, hope you get
them...

73,
Jeff - K5WE

ANYONE HAD ANY LUCK WORKING SOUTH ORKNEY VP8PJ YET?  HEARING THEM BEST ON
30M, HEARD THEM WORK W5IF, HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO GET THROUGH PILEUP YET.
