I've been chasing this expedition on various bands for several days.  Two nights ago I called them for hours on 160 CW only to hear them answer nothing but EU.

Last night at about 0435Z I saw them spotted on 160 RTTY for goodness sake.  I made about three calls and worked them!  I started having thoughts that it might be a pirate but they recently updated Clublog and there is my RTTY QSO.  Pretty amazing.

The serious Topband guys swear that you can't work DX without a dedicated low-noise RX antenna and the legal limit.  I'm using my vertical TX antenna on RX and 500W.  Go figure.
