        Several have been fortunate to
work Serge UK8DAN over the past few
years. He surely is one of the most
persistent operators from a rare and
difficult area for propagation to NA.  I
often see him spotted even though
most times I cannot hear him.

        Today I happened to be online
when he was spotted by RA4LW, so
I asked Vlad to get Serge's exact rig
and antenna setup.  Here is what Vlad
reported after asking Serge:

******************************************
"for info Bill, He is using homemade
TRCVR (UA1FA) 80w only and fullsize
deltaloop max 23mh"
******************************************

        Topband never ceases to amaze
us with what can be done if we're persistent!
For any who need Serge, get your receiving
systems tweaked up, be persistent and
hope for good propagation...I'm sure he'll
continue to be QRV often this season.

                        73 & GL!

                        Bill  W4ZV
