Gary,

I know I heard you in there last night and I think they got you OK.
I heard them come back to K2QMF very clearly.

Yes, anything is possible. I got a couple of emails last night from
guys saying they heard the Q but between those bastard jammers & QSB
on a really faint signal, I am not 100% I heard a TU in return, I
thought I did. I did hear their report but did they hear mine back? I

might have ended up not in the log.

I really don't want to add to the noise of others trying to make the
Q if I'm already in the log, FT5 is so difficult to make on TB on the

east coast/central NA and I want all of us to get it. I really don't
feel good about having at it again because of not knowing I guess I
have to.

Gary,

I know I worked them on 40 SSB last night, and I do not appear in the
log. So, I checked about a dozen other guys in the spots for 40 SSB
last night who supposedly worked them after I did. None of them
appear in the log either. Methinks there are some bands missing in
today's upload!

     Rats, back in the chase, must have been a slim. Just checked clublogs
     FT5ZM log and the 160M Q didn't show up but my 17M contact an hour &
     a half later did. I know I heard them come back to me so it must have
     been a slim but geez with the signals like they were, it sure sounded
     like their signal.
Ugh... Gary
