First heard HC8N in New Mexico about 1205z. Signal rose and peaked at 579
about 1220z.
Worked him QRP, five watts, but had to fight off his desire to "hear first
K5YA, then W6YA, before he got it right as W5YA, FISTS club call sign. He
seemed to QRT about 1230z.
ZK2CA was very weak 1200z to 1340z. He finally rose up to out of the mud to
about 549 at gray-line enhancement and worked at 1352z, but, alas, not QRP.
