[SADXA] Worked VK0EK Heard.. 14027 SP 0431Z

Wes:

You just described the difference between those who have them all and 
those who don't. Those who do have them all let nothing get in the way 
of listening for that rare one at any time at any place. The jammers so 
often make it very difficult to get through and one turns the radio off 
in disgust rather than keep trying. Watching the posts is very important 
any more where in the past one had to listen listen listen, rather than 
watch the posts when that rare one is being heard in ones area.

_DXing is far easier now_ than it used to be because of all the 
information available on the internet to track the DX.

Just a thought
