Dennis, don't feel bad. When he first showed up on 20m RTTY last evening, I
blew it by calling transceive, he was listening UP but not announcing it.
I finally got him around 9:40 p.m. local time.
The same thing happened on 40 meter CW this morning. The op was calling QRZ, I
called a couple of times, then some IDIOT at 20 over 9 sent "AD1C QRT" on top
of the DX frequency. A few minutes later, YV0D was saying "JA only".
It pays to listen, but you can't hear what the DX station doesn't send!
