[WVDXA] YK9G on 10.123

Sat Apr 12 18:24:11 PDT 2008

I have listened for YK9G from the mobile. The few times I could hear him, he was so weak and the pileup was so large it would have been a waste of time trying from /M.  I would like to have a shot /M but so far he has not had enough signal to be workable. 

Congrats to W8OI for working him.

Yes, I have noticed that.  Usually by the time I get home in the evening and eat supper, he's off of 30 m.  I only have YK on 40 CW, so I really don't need this operation on 40 but would be nice to get them on 20 or 30.  He was coming thru earlier today on 20 m real well, but after a few minutes in the pileup, he was only taking west coast stations and he finally faded out.  Oh well, I am playing in the GA QSO Party now and have working quite a few counties I need for 2nd time around USA-CA and several new ones on CW.  40 sure has some STRONG SIGNALS on it.

Lots of QSB.  I worked him on one of the swells.  If he'll stay there for another hour or so he ought to be better, but his history is that he isn't on 30 even this late usually.

Good luck.

Good Job.  I've listened to them off and on for the last 2 hours and they're STILL just a peep here. Glad somebody got'em.
