I knew TO0R would be on at 2200Z but thats 4:00pm local and almost 2
hrs before sunset. I turned the rig on and could hear the east coast
calling along with the europeans but not any sign from TO0R at 1826.5.
So I left the rig on 1826.5 and did some work around the shack. Two
hours later, TO0R went from nothing to a solid 569 two S unis above
the noise! Two calls and I worked him at 0020Z! So far the new year
looks pretty good.
