[SADXA] XR0ZRC

[Jim Wysocki]

Several times this team was unable to complete a single FT8 QSO for more 
than 10 minutes at a time.  More than once an operator switched their 
transmit time segment from even to odd and then back again.  That 
created real chaos as stations then were calling them on every 
consecutive 15-second time slice.  Some stations were even calling 
XR0ZRC on their transmit frequency, right on top of them.  Such events 
show thatXR0ZRC's operators are still learning how to use this mode.

I've also seen the same propagation vagaries you have.  There must be 
enough topographical irregularities along the way to knock down the 
signals between CE0Z and us.
